Colin's reserve toss

Post by berow »

I would like to congratulate Colin on his reserve toss. His timing was first rate, leaving it to the end for maximum impact. I thought he was a little low when he tossed it but it just added the the suspense. At one point I thought he had bottled it( sorry Colin ). Out it came gathered up beautifully and landed in a shallow area of the lake. Star of the show, well done.

The NHPC were very well represented I thought, Colin's reserve throw was great to see & Gary's second place in the A-comp was fantastic.
Colin even had birds throwing themselves at him, ask him all about it at he meeting but don't tell Julie! :lol: :lol: :lol:
I had an amazing time flying at Clough with a bit of coaching thanks to Ali G.

I had a great time! Loads of fun and interesting banter!

And great weather conditions for both camping and flying!

I had 4 nice little flights at 3 new sites! Done me the world of good!

Well done to Colin and Gary!
