The holiday weekend in the UK, steady light drizzle with a cold (12C/54F) NE 9mph breeze.

With a wet 1.5 kite with green race this is just fine for a while. And then, solo flying today, I become aware that the foam on one of my handles is rotating on the handle. This would have been bad news at a team event but a simple fix would be available using 'brown parcel tape'. I will now have to figure out a more elegant solution and decide which adhesive would be best and how to apply it!

The Canary Wharf towers had their heads in the clouds as I travelled back to Hackney. The new cable car Thames crossing was hardly visible in the murky atmosphere.
