I took two friends to Le Touquet, via a sightseeing tour of rural Essex, on Saturday. It was a bit hazy but pleasant enough.
LT was busier than I've ever seen anywhere except the PFA Rally.
I worked my way up from something absurd like 14th in turn to land when I joined downwind. Then some kind person in a Cherokee decided he could fit into the gap I left between me and the C152 in front when I turned final.
He nearly had to go round, due to being too close to the 152. I had to go round due to being extremely close to him. I had rather hoped that he would do the decent thing and go round himself, but nothing of the sort.
So, if you're reading this (which I doubt), thanks for the extra circuit flying practice - much appreciated.
