A fine (though blue) day was forecast, and as we assembled for the morning briefing it looked as though it was right. Not very many had shown up (about a dozen in all), possibly due in part to it being Mother's Day, but the K21s, Perkoz and Junior were ready by briefing. Sally Hender enjoyed a flight with Dan Hender as a Mother's Day treat.

It was nice to launch from the clubhouse end, with the wind from the NW. The wind did keep it rather cool, though the sun made up for it. There was no low cloud to speak of, making thermal hunting awkward, though some was found principally in a line from the Bowl past Forest Glade caravan site.
By 4pm everyone who wished to fly had done so, and all was packed away shortly after. - Chris Warnes
