Wednesday 12th.  A light/light to moderate SSE'ly blew all day, with flying comprising 5 ATs off runway 20 and flying coming to an end around midday.  In the absence of any significant lift , flight times were mostly below 20 minutes, but Steve Thompson in his Ventus bt had 33 minutes from a 2,000' tow, with the best of the other flights, all in K21 KLW, beimg 17 minutes by Andreas Rieder/Roy Wilkins from a 2,500' tow off the last flight of the day.

Thursday 13th.  A cloudy day with light rain or drizzle at times, as a moderate to fresh NNW'ly slowly declined to become light by late afternoon, meant there was no flying.
