Where to go on a light easterly?
Anybody got any suggestions or is Borden all we can manage?
Anything else for the weekend?
See you out there!!!!!

Sarchasm, intregue and somone lucky enough to have a weekend on a Friday!
Guess I'll just have to keep hunting! Or be more precise when I ask questions!
Like, on Saturday, when there appears to be a forecast for light easterly winds, northeast England having the best thermal forecast, has anyone got an idea of where to fly slightly inland on a hill with a bit of height that will fit the bill as an area to take off from on a paraglider?
See you out there!!!!!

Coldsmouth hill will take an easterly 4 x 4 to get up or its a good walk,
Ask bob sutherland, but take your mac.
