We had a good day at the club yesterday. We had a late start due to some rain showers, but most present wanted to get in the air so we flew the K21 two up, and took turns to fly. Wind didn't look quite right but we managed some extended flights on the ridge - longest flight of the day was with Rob F and Tim D at 17 minutes.
After flying we re-rigged the K8 which has recently had it's ARC completed. Phil M has done a marvellous job - the glider looks very smart and the paintwork gleams.
While we'd been doing that Mick, Christine and helpers had been putting up the Christmas tree and decorating the clubhouse. It looks very jolly now, Christmas feels like it's here! A number of members brought food or all sorts, and set this up in the clubhouse. Rowan made mulled wine from scratch with spices and fruit, and it went down very well. Lots of food and drink, plus a couple of silly party games organised by Lucy. Who knew that Paul D could draw cartoons that well??
Thanks to everyone who came along and contributed - it was lovely to have a relaxing & happy evening with friends. Merry Christmas everyone!
