I thought that was his antenna :wink:
Glad to see you got out Andrew, and had the young fella in tow as well :clap: Nothing quite like a good wind in your face to blow away all of life's troubles is there.

As for the PSS event in March. I've texted the almighty and asked for fine weather, he hasn't replied yet.

Human attempts are predicting such things show SW for Saturday and W winds for Sunday. Both will be good (with no risk of paragliders).

Keep your fingures crossed guys :roll:
