| Comments | :: | Arrived 11ish to find some other mid-week skivers (Pete Malon and Kirsty) about to walk up the hill. Reasonable breeze, little lift. A few others joined us, and the air became more buoyant in the afternoon. After 2:00 pm the high cloud finally moved out the way, and the one good thermal of the day came through. Three of us ended up in it and very slowly climbed up to the inversion. Attempting to follow Jim Mallinson soon had me back on terra firma to the east of Golden Ball, and watched as he slowly disappeared, far into the distance. Pilots were still flying at Rybury late afternoon, as viewed from the Barge Inn beer garden. A beautiful sunny May day. |
