Even though it was breezy it was quite warm. We managed to get some flying done. There were showers around but most of them missed us.

I should be there then! :)

Bit of flying last night at the beach with my little b29. I really really love that one! 

At the beach, it’s raining, everybody is in the water… Proper Irish holidays

Hey Ralph,

Will be in my way back on Friday. No ideas if the time. Week after that, I’m good for a coffee :)

We were representing the gliding community today!

Also! Saw à modeler flying nearby! At the golf club, did not wanted to disturb him, but if you are reading this, I am here until Friday, but only brought gliders with me.

Talking about gliders, heading to the “local” slope now fir a bit of relaxed flying with the B29 :)

More slope flying today in windy conditions at Keel and the local sand dunes.

It was windy, so flew my old Arcus from Robbe! Found memories of this glider, and it did not disappoint!
