Saturday 30th June
They're out on task at the moment. 2.5 hours AAT, EDG-NOW (100km sector)-TOW-CGT-EDG.
They've gone out to the North East as we have an easterly and some predicted cu.
Party night tonight - Disco & fancy dress in the hangar.
Friday Quiz night
Our quiz was very well attended as usual so we moved to the hangar due to the extreme heat (photos of the temporary Shenington Lido later!). Many thanks to Paul & Lucy for organising the evening. (This year's controversial question related to the A1, for those who remember 'Parrotgate'). After the quiz many competitors fell back to the bar & clubhouse where they started a jamming session with piano & guitars.....zzzzzz

Friday 29th June
We initially set an AAT expecting it to be a more difficult day - a lower predicted 'cloud base' (no clouds!), more wind, later start, etc. As conditions failed to develop we eventually fell back to a short racing task, then scrubbed. A couple of people have gone flying, the rest have run for the shade.
Quiz night tonight!
Thursday Prelim Results
A good day yesterday, most people got back, and there were clouds for a large part of the task.

The fog is going to clear, but conditions will be worse than yesterday so we have taken an early decision to scrub. Competition Forum in the hangar now, pig roast this evening, followed by a talk from Wing Commander Mike Pollitt on flying the Vulcan.
