Saturday 13th March

What a lovely soarable March day - and North Hill was open! and all the gliders were serviceable.
The wind started off west of North but by lunchtime we had to change ends for the easterly component, and by mid-afternoon it changed back again. It was lovely to see all the private gliders out after the winter gloom. The north westerly streets gave plenty of very small thermals to 2500ft until late-on when the street towards Honiton firmed up into a continuous line of lift. Martin went to Minehead in the Ventus, Joe went to Taunton in the K13, the rest of us stayed local. 31 members enjoyed 51 winch launches and aerotows. There were 9 flights of 2-4 hours and 5 flights over 1 hour.
In the evening we celebrated Graham's birthday with a Chilli party.
