Had a great afternoon flying my flowtail just outside the arena handing the line to all who expressed an interest, even the mayor had a go! There were loads of positive comments from everyone I spoke to, many had not flown kites since childhood and remarked how enjoyable and relaxing it was. I had forgotten how large a space the green was, we haven't flown there for ages. Drawbacks there are parking charges (not sure what the charge is but someone I spoke to said it was 50p per hour, will need to check this) and the nearest loos are located at the RH&D railway station. However I think we should consider it as a future flying site. Comments please. Mike

Happy to fly there. I don't know what on street parking is like.

The car park is operated by Euro Carparks, but finding information on it is a struggle. It seems the machine does not take cash. But from one comment I read, charge is £2 per day. Though that was about a year ago.

Have to sort out parking and toilets especially for our lady members before serious consideration.
