Yes I know it's a rough old life but it is always refreshing to know that someone will pull you up for putting a comma in the wrong place. Just like being at work really....come to think of it, it is just like being at home.........

Unlike some of our correspondants I don't believe Gib is totally predictable except perhaps when the wind is out of the west when it is quite benign. With the wind southerly / SW'ly you can often see the downdrafting air disturbing the surface of a calm sea - if conditions permit. Unfortunately it is often too late to do much about it. Being stuck to the runway by the road however is an excellent measure.
