C'Mon you ****ards lets have the low down of the flying today. Just because I'm sitting here with extremely large gonads doesn't mean I'm not in flying mode.

If I haven't answered the landline to people it's because I've got to walk down the stairs in pain.......

I hear it's been a great day

Dave was on the phone tonight John, he and Alan made it to Skinningrove and back but apparently Ronnie did some "classy" O&R on the Target. Just have to grin and bare it. Our time will come John.

with 3 flights and no broken uprights then my flying was tops.

i was on form and keepng up the tradition of top to bottoms, i may have waited so long for coastal flying and now its hear i fond it the most chalnging part its all in th take off and one hesitationleaves you on the beach though better to be on the beach than in the hill. i would of liked of jumped to the big cliffs ut i was o weary about jumping the gap as if i had o scratch the tied was to fr in to just point out and land. this is so different to cra than on a pg soi am playing the safe card at the moment untill i have develped more skill and have better control. alan an davewent to skiningrove and back but ronyturned up later and i believe he got to staithes and back, definately hd te balls of the dy if he made it there and back. only ron sdon flew his paraglider but unfotunately the rain came in soon afterwards and picked the wind up.

all in all 5 flights in 3 days on the hg 1 bent upright and 1 hour on the pg.
other han that john ou havn't missed much.

gt well soon chers gary

Wise to do so.

It sounds as though it was a cracking day never the less. It looks like Alan is running away with the winter XC league ??????????????? He aslo paints a mean coat of Magnolia..........
