To say it was cold today would
would be a gross understatement, it took all the powers of persuasion of
John S and Peter S to extradite the club members from their warm cacoon
and tea in the clubhouse.
We
also had the joys of flying from the S/W corner in the brisk N/E wind
not the warmest place at the best of times, still we all had an
interesting day Chris C renewed his yellow card all the rest had good
practice in laying off in strong crosswind conditions.

| Time for a nice hot cuppa' (John St) |
We
managed 21 flights, the high launches were soon lost in the heavy sink
that seemed to be everywhere, there was some tanterlising wave downwind
of the airfield but due to prudence and the cold we did not investigate
it, at last we put the gliders away they didn't need cleaning, anyway
the hose was frozen. - JSt
