Sunday 23rd June Fly-in Tonbridge

[ekim]

Wow, Thursday already! Whatever has happened to this week. I think a flat green flying site is calling.

Weather permitting Fly-in Sunday 23rd June will be at the Racecourse Park, Tonbridge, Kent. TN9 1HF is the postcode quoted for the park.

I usually park in the car park off The Slade. What3words ///oval.claim.supply should get you there.

Wherever you park you will need to carry your gear over the river. We usually fly on the NE side of the park not far from the children's play area.

Current forecast 16 degrees 6 - 17 mph with no rain.

Lovely afternoon at Tonbridge, warm and dry although not quite a sunny as forecast and definitely not as windy. Many twinline kites flown, some for the first time. A good smattering of single line kites as well, whenever the wind allowed. Lots of conversation in good company. Barbara and I joined Heather and Gareth who were there when we arrived. We were joined by Bill with a truckfull of kites, many were opened and some were flown. As the day drifted away we finally left about 19.15, couldnn't leave it much later as M20 closed overnight from 20.00 and we wanted to get home with as little hassle as possible. Hope Bill made it home through the roadworks and closed road maze!

Sorry I was not there. I have only just looked at the forum to see you were at Tonbridge on Sunday. I could not have made it anyway, as Ana and I returned from Malta yesterday Monday afternoon.
