The news proclaimed that today shoppers will be spending £1.5 million per minute and I guess that’s where most of the DGS members were.

With very low numbers and a very wet, very cold airfield we decided not to get the toys out.

After chopping enough wood to keep the stove burning furiously all day, we retired to the clubhouse and spent our time discussing cross country flying and strategies for his 50km silver leg with Mike Jardine. This is the last leg he requires for his silver badge.

After our discussions Mike flew the simulator from Brentor to North Hill and was able to practice some of the techniques he will use when he flies the real thing in the spring. Well done Mike.
