Yipee Im In!

[eagle1]

Fingers crossed for some nice dry weather guys. I'll be up there. Happy Christmas to you all

[C24]

Thanks for the info Gary. The third posting was particularly useful [ I spent a minute or two interpreting the first two to arrive at a similar conclusion!!] I appreciate you posting these things for us.

So, it looks like the 27/28th is due some lousy weather then.

Wellies on & hope to see some of you there. [eagle1 & nick197??].

don't forget spare batteries!

[Nick Thompson]

All dependent upon some dry weather I hope to be there, alongside my Dad and Brother, lets just hope the English weather holds up

[Gary]

No problem people glad to help . I have checked just now (19.34l Christmas eve) and all NOTAMs are still in place. I might be there as well weather dependant.

[GummyBe4r]

Ill be there also hopefully :-), thanks Gary

[GummyBe4r]

What's the weather looking like in Suffolk at the moment

Kind regards

I plan to venture over there tomorrow. The weather doesn't look too appealing but it's far better than staying at home doing nothing. Black Corsa, fighter control sticker in the rear window, scruffy unshaven face, answers to the name Steve

Might go for my first trip ever on wednesday

[FTS]

I aim to try and get up there on wednesday as well. It'll probably be my last oportunity until the summer at least. A bit less rain this time would be nice!

Although I cant make it this time lets hope you get some sunshine after all, dont think the rain could get much worse

Kind Regards
