looks like stopping at work wasn't such a bad idea

Post by gary stenhouse »

well the forecast was good but still not good enough to pull myself away early, though it does look like moneylaws was working but not very well. even though it may be the last time it is allowed to be flown. tommorow may be ok for east hill late on when the wind drops, that is if at does and its not raining. failing that saturday could be epic for wetherfell or clough head but giving the way the weather has been changing then anything could happen by then. as for the so called summer conditions i would say spring is a walk in the park compared to conditions lately. still canot complain only been flying a week and had 2 xc and 6 hours so long may it continue after all it is summer.

Would you like to elaborate please Gary?
Handle every stressful situation like a dog.
If you can't eat it or play with it,
Just pee on it and walk away.

Wether Fell was quite good, but you needed to be on a hang glider. The paragliders were leaving as we arrived because it was too windy for them. The thermals were a bit ragged though and cloudbase less than a grand above the top putting paid to any XC ambitions.....
