Update, it is still looking OK but a bit cool and the grass will likely be quite wet, so plan to get there 10:30 ish. I'll bring the DLG as might need the exercise to keep warm!

It looks windy all week until Thurs/Fri. I can't make it Thurs so if mother nature co-operates I plan to be at the field on Friday (26th).

Westover Sunday Oct 14 prior to meeting

At the moment the forecast looks OK for a visit to the slope before Sunday's meeting. So if it stays OK plan to be there about noon for 45 mins or so.

Flying Wednesday October 3

Post by Andy M » Mon Oct 01, 2018 1:43 pm

Update, I'm feeling rough with a bug and staying home.

Wednesday looks like a close to perfect day. I aim to be there 9 to 9:30 ish, flying off the histart and maybe some DLG.

I don't know where the hammer went. I'm pretty sure it was put in the clubhouse when I was the last to leave on Sunday Sept 23.

Does anyone know where the SOGGI-General-Purpose-Hammer disappeared to?
