Well what a great day on the big L. Fred didn't disappoint and travelled from Dublin to be at the most exciting day in a long time on big L, little keith was there with bells on, Keith and I were fashionably late and Joe arrived to back up the team.... Well what a great day.... We watched Fred pollute a perfectly good coffee with sour milk and then..... Em ....... Well and then ...... Eh we looked at Fred's flashing brake lights and we then..... Eh ...... Oh yea took a photo ...... And went home ;-( crackin day all, thanks..... We must bring the gliders next time and do some flying ;-)

Fred:
:lol:  :lol:  good one Stephen!  :clap:

Yep, good move to cancel, complete wash out! Where is the summer we had yesterday??!!  :!:

Anyway, that's the true sloper's spirit!  :clap:

Always good to have a chat with like minded people. I was drenched to the bones, but was it worth it? Yes!  :D  Good to take some fresh air, and hopefully, the weather in May will be much better. Enough of this winter!  :evil:  :evil:

Blue sky is back over here  :!:
Photos later (The Sugar Loaf was looking really nice this morning  :D )

Keith:
We are the hardened slope gliders were not afraid of rain..as a good man once said "rain is for girls". (It was fred who said it) :D  :?  :roll:
Are you coming back tomorrow fred to get more drenched  :P  :roll:

Happy Days:


Much better weather this morning lads! :D  With little cracks of blue sky showing through the cloud and a fair breeze from the south it’s going to be a good day for slope soaring. You can see the Big L emerging from under the cloud. The sun is just breaking through where I live and the car is packed.

So who’s going to join me on the slopes of the Big L? :?:  bring plenty of ballast, there’s a 30Kph gusting to 45 blowing at the moment. (Just right for some combat flying!) :twisted:
