Sorry Ger, I'd hoped to get down this year but my health isn't too good and I haven't been travelling much this year. Hoping for an improvement soon and can get out and about again

sorry I didn't make it down. A 4 hr drive with a screaming headache just didn't appeal. Hope you get good weather the rest of the weekend

very few of the guys I fly gliders with are members at just one club. Nearly everyone flies power/electric with another club.
