The remains of last weekend's snow was still lying on the heath this morning but our usual pitch was occupied by a 'half term' fair, generator trucks, bouncy castles 4WDs barking dogs and all... Not a pretty sight!

The forecast 6-7mph NW breeze was not in evidence so we made do with the 1-2mph SW one that was in place most of the time. The dull grey low cloud cover occasionally showed shifts of colour and slight precipitation. Rain, not sleet or snow.

It's great to have the Zens/CR1s in the bags so it was another lazy fly until a missing layer meant that core temperature could not counteract my chilling feet.

Plans for Berck, Cervia and Weymouth are basically finalised. I am very pleased at the prospect of 9 days in Cervia. My time in Berck has, however, been further curtailed to just 3 days...
