Hey Ralph,

I'll try to put my head around it also, but I am flexible :)

Might be an idea Ralph or edit it to show it's been cancelled

Hi all, Summer Gliding will start on Tountinna on Wednesday 6th April (weather permitting of course).
All glider-guiders are welcome to join us every Wednesday afternoon/evening for the summer.
If you’re in the area, why not throw a glider in the car and spend a couple of hours on TT with us, you won’t be disappointed.
Regards, GB

Hi everyone.
I have a recollection of a mention of a date for Mt Leinster in September  but I cannot find it. Can someone point me in the right direction  or am I confused - again.
I haven't flown since Mt Leinster early this year or maybe even 2021- haven't even charged anything. Covid really changed us - I flew almost every Saturday for over 30 years but haven't really got going since lockdown.

3rd and 4th of Sept for our final meeting (unless anyone wants more?), hoping to catch a bit of nice weather

Hi All,

weather keeps changing for the weekend, lightweights and electrics appears to be the requirement. See you all on Sat.

Yes. Not at all clear what the weather will do.  Cloud base could be the issue. I plan to try for Saturday am.

Cloud base isn't a problem in the pub ;)
