Thanks all for a great day flying. By the way John my spitfire is good as new again ready for  battle in April. Hi Joe if you read this I need a form signed for MACI membership, I can post it to you with a stamped addressed envelope and maybe you could forward it for me. Email to send address jjd385@gmail.com    Many thanks.
John.

Happy Days:
No doubt about it, we had  a very good day. :D  I think it’s true to say that we all did a lot of chatting, a lot of laughing, and er,….oh yes,….. a lot of flying. 8)

Conditions started off the day with strong lift which gradually, slowly, reduced over the following 6 hours enabling all types of models to fly at some point, ending with some graceful polyhedral ‘floaters’ by late afternoon. It was wonderful to see the old, and not so old, faces again and to catch up on all the gossip & scandal. Well,…not much scandal unfortunately. :(

Let’s see if I can name all who turned up,…….Me, then Fred, followed close behind by JP & Roisin, then Ralph, Les & Kevin showed up not long before Peter arrived. John “fireball” joined us and then Alan. :clap:

Now, everyone who’s name I have not mentioned must write out, 100 times, “I must not miss the April  Glide-In at Mount Lienster.” and spend the whole of tomorrow sitting, with arms folded, in the naughty corner! :cry:

Thanks for the photos JP, NOT! I’m now in the doghouse after Mandy saw the photo of me with my arm around Roisin I‘ve been getting GBH of the ears all evening with “Is THAT what you get up to when you go flying!” :roll:  Hopefully I’ll still be alive tomorrow so I can finish cutting the video footage of the blue sky, models, and pilots that made today such an enjoyable event.

Thanks to everyone who turned up from all parts of the country.

Keith

rogallo:
That would be Chris Gilbert, Keith, 100 times!
