Despite my good intentions, it seems that the meteorological gods are determined to prevent me from getting any photographs. Last weekend we were in Margate, with no wind and occasional drizzle. This weekend we decided to try the park in Tobridge. the weather forecast didn't promise much but they got it completely wrong.
I got there about lunchtime to about 40% cloud cover and the lightest of breeze at ground level. I decided to try out the new flowform 30 and managed to get it into the air after a short while, but it was destined to come back to earth as th ewind dropped away completely.
The rest of the afternoon was spent tryng tofigure out which way the wind was blowing and what we could fly, settling on brazilian headsticks and a Benson innerspace, and they were hard work!
At about 5 pm there was enough breeze to launch the gflowform, but turbulence off the houses seemed to make it difficult to get too high. Eventually a very long launch came to the rescue and we were airborn, but all too soon it was time to hed away, just one of those days I guess.
Tomorrow is bank holiday and the weather gods are predicting rain all day. I have some chores to get finished so it is unlikely I will get out to play.
