Bloomin' weather didn't hold out for me yesterday.

Planned a lesson for this afternoon (Tuesday) as the weather was forecast better. Got to the airfield at around 16:45. Planned to start flying between 17:00 - 17:30 and would you believe it.... the wind picked up from 3kts to around 20 - 30 kts. Hung around for over an hour but still no change. Chris couldn't believe my luck! Left at 18:45 with another lesson booked for Saturday morning. Maybe that will be my day!

I was so looking forward to it. I had been mentally visualising flying the circuit including all the usual checks from startup to shutdown. Won't be long now.
