Real Dads at Butser West on Fathers Day

Promised my son Thomas that I would take him swimming today as it looked to windy today to go flying. When I woke up I was asked, "are you sure you don't want to go flying today it doesn't look that windy". As it was fathers day I could of course exercise my right to change my mind without any fear of recrimination. After procrastinating for an hour I was on my way to Butser.

Arrived to find another Dad, Grant, rigging. I started getting set up and it promptly rained, heavily. I considered going home again to try and go swimming before the day was a right off but decided to wait a while. It came good in the end and we had a nice afternoon in some buoyant air, wind was a bit strong and mashed up the thermals at times.
