Hmmm, it’s not looking great.

Looks fine :wink: you coming for a fly Stuart?

I don’t know about Wigan but it’s blowing a gale up here.
But anything can happen in 7 hrs.

Hi all, I have just noticed this. Slow me. Was considering coming, gotta go unload the car if we are however what are the walks involved. Is everyone going to be parking and walking, if so then this is not going to be worth the drive for us. Hopefully you mad late nighters will be up to reply

Hoping to @RemoteIDsaveslives - it’s blowing a fair bit at the mo, fingers crossed it takes the bad weather with it.

I’ve put everything on charge anyway :crossed_fingers:

See you all in 7 hours… Possibly :pray:

If you just want to fly the abandoned golf course, there’s two car parks you can use. The main one with the Cafe (and old golf club) or one further up by the closed down pub.
Depends which bit of the golf course we’re congregating on.

But right now (1:30 am) the weather is a bit grim :confused:

Ok well we cant do walking so we will see in the morning what messages are on here. Lights all alight in front room. More and more as things reach full. We are ready to go. If people can update us on here in the morning then we can make a last minute decision.

I’ve never been before but as we are parking in the carpark of an abandoned golf course i can’t see why park and fly isn’t possible.

Looking unlikely for me and @milkmanchris this time.
Weather looks a bit shite for a 4 hour round trip
