yep i was planning on flying up there today on the ppg but ended up at ashington with glen and brian, a few troubles ment i was late and getting off and hot and sweaty so decided on a cruise along the coast. i think it was just to cold for a 3-4 hour flight on the ppg expecialy ar air speed of 47-57 kmh. what a day it would of been though as the air was gin and as smooth as silk. next time i am going to get in closer so makes it more a 1 -2 hour circumnavigation of the cheviots.

cheers gary

Yep, that was me, deciding I couldn't feel the wing, let alone run 200m with that weight on my back.
A nice walk would have been good, and the surfing afterward was great.
See you out there!!!!!
