At least i can take the family out tonight for a good meal to make up for being away next week with work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oipigface Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I was surprised not to see anybody else on Mickey's West this afternoon. It was chilly, but sunny with a very consistent wind at about 7.5m/s. I had a very pleasant couple of hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromit Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 A very enjoyable Welsh Winter lg rd 3 today Very many thanks and hats off to AJ for running / CD'ing the whole day, sitting on the VR slope surrounded by snow in minus temps for the whole day, AJ's efforts were very much appreciated by all of us who attended today . Thanks too to Mark Treble for being Buzzer Supremo, he was excellent as ever in this role. Thankyou too to those who erected & took down the course. The clear skies & sprinkling of snow made for some stunning scenery to be flying in. Nice pics Graham. Quickest journey ever back home from the Bwlch too 2hr 40 mins . Stu.

mark_r Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yes thanks AJ for sitting it out on that north slope. Variable wind and multiple reflights for me made it interesting but a very enjoyable day out. Congrats to top 3 and everyone else for making it out.
