Fred:
WE CAN Drive to 9 stones from the Bunclody side!!

:)

Fred:
Thank you all for coming this weekend (from as far as Cork and Northern Ireland! Thanks again for traveling guys!!  :-* ) despite the less than encouraging forecast, but Big L did it again! :)

I believe Les and Joe managed to fly a tad on Saturday. Real pain to see we could fly, but could not access the slope!
But, all changed on Sunday!! A miracle, or some hard working Council people opened up the road to 9 stones!

Anyway, good winds, and we flew :) Understandingly, we were only 3 pilots, with Joe going up later to fly, but we missed him!! :( We must have crossed each others on the road, as I would have come back and carry on the flying :(

Anyway! We flew, and that's the main thing! The SnowBoot did the first flight, none event. Even got checked by a big bird :) Entertaining to watch!
Ralph flew his SB13 also for the first time. Looks good in the air for sure!

Next meeting is about 3 weeks away :)

Anyone planning to be up Mount Leinster tomorrow? I think the snow's all gone now...

Forecast is for southerly winds around 8kts from 1200.

Spanner:
I am heading down in the morning hopefully the weather hold good. The snow is gone I flew there on Wednesday at about 5 pm on the North slope great wind but it was bloody freezing. One half hour flight and called it a day.
