Arriving at the airfield it was obviously going to be a non flying day. The cloud base was way below the airfield. In fact, from the clubhouse the north fence was hidden in the fog. talking about being hidden there were quite a few cars and therefore members around but where were they? The only people in view were David Archer and Heather who were attacking the Jeep with a pressure washer and soap and water.

Wandering up to the runway in search of the missing members I could hear an engine running in the distance but there was nothing to see. Eventually, the outline of a tractor could be seen. A minute or two later the missing members came into view. They were repairing pot holes in the track using some previously untried stone, sand and clay mix as our normal road planings are just no available in our local area.

By about 1pm the rain had set in and prevented further road repairs, so back to the clubhouse for lunch. Apart from the usual topics of conversation our thoughts drifted to the "away team" who have travelled to North Wales to collect out 2 "new" K13's. More news on that soon.
