Flying at the Gyrn.Geoff writes: after Sunday, we were anxious to get out and fly – to get back on the horse – as soon as possible. Today we had a reasonable forecast, but it was very cloudy in the morning. We checked with Steve Dean who had gone to the Gyrn, but he said it was cloudy there too, sometimes raining, and some people had flown, but gone straight down. So we did a few jobs, and went to do some shopping. When we came out it was sunnier than before, so, after a few more phone calls, we drove up to the Gyrn. It was cloudy there, but soarable, and we both flew for a short while. Not the most epic flight, but good to be in the air.

On the way back we went by the village underneath Corndon, and dropped off a bottle of whiskey, on behalf of the Long Mynd Soaring Club, at the house of the paramedic who responded first on Sunday.
