Low cloud, strong southerly wind – oh no not again I hear you say – or was that me? Tomorrow is the longest day; the summer solstice was 2 days ago; I am wearing 2 fleeces and shivering. Global warming indeed.

| Ged introducing a visitor to the delights of gliding. |
The faithful few were on the airfield with Ged and Seam flying 2 one day courses and an air ex visitor. Most flights were of the circuit variety but at one stage Sean found a small convergence which passed through the area at breakneck speed and gave him 20 minutes of soaring before it broke down into a shower. Scratch and Rick were taking in turns practicing flying the K13 from the back seat.

| Again father and son turn up for a trial lesson, little Rufos and Dad Ben. |
Meanwhile, a largish crew were at RAF Harrowbeer ( Yelverton ) with the Advertising Caravan and Martin’s T31 to encourage members of the public to try gliding. And last but not least, special mention should be made about Anne and husband Malcolm who arrived today in their RV and spent most of the day cleaning the clubhouse and it's facilities and making bacon sandwiches for the troops.
