Amused to notice a "glider" apparently soaring the Surrey Hills at 640' and 58kts. On closer inspection it has been following the A31, A3 and M25 with remarkable accuracy, so my conclusion is, it's firmly shut away in its trailer en-route to another soaring site or it's a paraglider of some sort. Either way, the battery is on...

Edit: left the M25 at Reigate... Heading into Reigate, maybe they do paragliding at Colley Hill or Buckland.

Edit 2: Now on a second circuit of Reigate one way system. Oh, I know that feeling... Watching it on "spot the gliders".

Edit 3: Blast. In Upper West Street Car Park. Oh well, time to go and collect my new glasses...

Edit 4: Must be in a bag... now walked dow to - it would appear - the Pilgrim Brewery shop!
