Saturday 5th January 2013

Quite a nice day for January, a bit grey but not TOO cold, and not too windy (though the various winch drivers did complain about the wire dropping near the turnips north of the grass strip!). Dave Perkins and Paul Fletcher were on duty, with Nigel C, Andy L and Eric helping out. Bruno was flying with Norman, who resoloed in the afternoon after a break from gliding. Also out flying were Robin, Charles S, Max L, Clive, Martin J, Bob and Lech with assorted helpers including Dawn, Nigel S, John, Tess and Lucy. Ian & Jan popped in for a visit, and Mary cooked us all beef & veg soup for lunch. Although tug pilot Rowan had no trade for the day, we accomplished a very healthy 27 launches for January. Happy New Year everyone - here's hoping for a good 2013!
