Thick high cloud bands over Blackheath occasionally thinned to a sunny sky with a gloomy backdrop. Variable light N-NW today so full 1.5 sails with race/green race to start but eventually we decided that diamond rods were the better option.

The plantains had raced ahead over the last week so the field was occasionally treacherous at ground level. <grins>

I’m looking forward to my summer break from work (which may involve some longer bicycle excursions) and especially our informal kite event ‘up north’ 16^th and 17^th August. That will be quickly followed by the Portsmouth kite event…
