Hello - those of you who use the chat will know me as Rupert S, the smug little git who just happens to fly. Well I've got my 16th and subsequently my first solo on the 10th of august so I just thought I'd let you all know that I'm joining the club and you can also post all your messages of congratulations and tidings of good luck
Thanks all
Rupert S

Rupe!!!
When you told me in chat that you would be doing your first solo in a couple of weeks, and that your birthday was on August 10th, I didn't realise you meant it would be your 16th birthday and that's why you were waiting two weeks to go solo!!!!!!!!!!!! I must be bloody thick or something.
Anyway, that's great!!! I'll cross my fingers for the next couple of weeks for good weather for you, and I hope to be...I mean I KNOW I will be...posting my congratulations very soon.
We chat addicts have got to look out for each other.
