Blue sky and sunshine in Hackney but heading towards the Blackwall Tunnel there was fog closer to the Thames with the tops of the Canary Wharf buildings appearing above it.  Emerging from the tunnel south of the river it was fairly dense fog but at the top of the Sun in the Sands hill the sun was shining again in a blue sky.

A light east north easterly breeze was only just perceptible when we arrived but it did strengthen gradually and switch to more easterly before the thermal activity really set in.  Zens and CR sails with mostly green race worked most of the time.  Some extended free flying with a musical accompaniment was interspersed with called sequences.  Some of the free flying was very effectively using the full window as well as close interaction with some clear interpretation of the musical ‘mood’.

I am booked to fly to Aarhus on Wednesday 6th March, returning on Friday 8th March so I will be watching the weather forecast for Sunday 10th March with particular interest.
