Monday 
Selsley, Monday March 15th. P.M.   Well, the West bowl at Selsley was at its very best. It occasionally drifted to the NNW point but always returned to ‘bang on the bowl’.  

Andrew (Typhoon) (Christine Zagi)  (Guy Phase 6 and MiraJ)   (Ade XXXL.)( Gordon VoltiJ and Mini Blade, hopped off a plane from Bahrain, to regain his F1 sanity) and some chaps SCSA members, flying a Middle Phase.   Best flying session for a long time, no PGs etc.   Ooooohhh not too cold either. Come on Summer!!

Tuesday
A good breeze and warm, but I had a bad afternoon, my Zagi was hit three times, loosing the battery in the last incident. My elderly Zagi is no match for Eyeboy's Bevolution
