OK so who's up for a bit of flying this weekend. It looks like they're forecasting pretty similar weather everywhere at the moment - South Easterlies at 14 mph, 7°c and sunshine! It will be a bit 'on shore' for both the Lade and Walmer but I'm happy to give anywhere a blast......suggestions please 😊

I am up for a fly. Given the predicted wind direction, that would make it pretty much offshore at Palm Bay I think. My recollection is that Palm Bay stays pretty dry on the surface, so I'd add that to the mix, but I think we should try to go to the Lade so we don't become the East Kent Kite Flyers.

Let's see what suggestions come up from other members. I've just had my medication changed and my doctor suggested that I shouldn't do anything physically exerting like kite flying, drinking, driving or even going out for a couple of days.......just got back from the pub having played league darts, I passed out at one stage (won both my games though 😆).

Seems to be a lack of interest amongst the assembled masses...

I'm still here and still interested Gareth. You know what time I can be at the various flying sites, I'll leave it to you to make the final decision.

There's not any great distance or travelling time difference between Palm Bay and the Lade for you Simon and the winds are often steadier at Palm Bay.
