Calm at home all morning. Decided to go out to Robin Young's. Just as I was leaving home, Martin Bates rang from Agnew's hill to say the wind there was well off to the NE.
I joined Martin at Young's and we climbed to the top takeoff with our gear - only to find that the wind was off to the East and gusting to 21mph. Meanwhile Dermot Lagan and Paul Cunningham had arrived in the car park but a quick phone call to Dermot saved them the trouble of coming up to join us.
After heading back to the car park and hanging around for a while and entertaining Dermot with tales of the early hang gliding days, there was no sign of the wind dying down so we gave up and went home.
