Is it not about time cumbria open the doors of its forum to let the children at least press their noses to the window?

This is no different to me or you putting the cheviots up for sale. If there's nothing anyone can do with the land then what does he even own. Was London bridge not sold by a similar scam many times over?

It wasn't me but.... It's more higher rated modern wings that have issues when wet, increased stall speed etc. However lower rated wings will fly fine even if they have just come out of a lake, infact the best way to dry a wing is to fly it. Forward launching will be tricker but with a bit of wind ...

Introducing the club's laureate

Like all good lyricists they eventually run out of paper, Ludie as I am sure Beethoven's friends would have called him, would tell you all about it, if he could.

So without further adoo may I introduce the latest opus from Mr Miller
