Wednesday's forecast was for
very strong winds and some blustery showers, but at the start of the day
the wind was just fresh, but the poor forecast must have put people off
coming, there where many regulars missing.

A showers skims past to the south |
We
had enough bodies to operate so we got the kit out, two K21s, the DG505,
and a Junior. The wind was northwesterly and the the ridge was working to 1,800ft on occasion . There was also wave and thermals at times, we flew all day, managing
22 flights with a total of 12hrs of soaring.

The
rain didn't materialise except just as we were stopping for lunch and
as we were putting the gliders away, so did not spoil,what was a very
good day. - JSt
