I turned up at Combe at around 2pm to find 2 gliders in the air and a couple getting ready.  A quick chat revealed that it had been really good until lunchtime, but the wind had picked up a bit.

Although quite Westerly both pilots were above launch, but soon came down and landed.  got myself ready and took off with a couple of the other pilots who'd arrived just before me.  The wind was strong and along way off the hill.  After being pinned for 10 minutes or so and having seen (Aiden?) on a redbull X-alps glider head out and then slope land at the bottom I decided that I didn't fancy that option as it'd mean landing in the lee of trees.  Being a complete chicken and light on my wing, I headed over to the bottom landing field and landed vertically perpendicular to the landing field (it is quite small W - E).

When I left the other guys were slowly working their way westward along the ridge and as i left one had got a some decent height above a westerly bowl

I packed up and then headed off to Rybury / Milk Hill, but there was no one there and so headed home having done my little bit for the environment?!
