Monday afternoon - turned up at Butser West after a very long run of bad luck and absolutely no flying for far too many months. Met up with familiar faces and had a grand ol' chin wag. Simon had been flying earlier and landed after being concerned over the strength. It was mighty cold I must say, Although my lovely new Advance flying jacket was keeping me just right, the hands were losing the battle badly. After the natter had finished a couple headed home and the remaining die hards went to the front, thinking that the gusts had backed off. They had! We grabbed our kit and as we returned to the face, the clouds disappeared, the air got warmer and the sun was refreshing! We all managed a few flights and I'm sure there's some video footage to come.
I've attached a few piccies from my mobile - poor quality but shows the afternoon's floating nicely.
