Getting slow this. Was flying on 24r December 2006. The weather was dry but very cold and damp as it had been raining during the night. No one else turned up.
Went to Aviemore on Boxing day to my other club's site. Three of the stalwarts turned up. We had some nice flying with excellent weather although cold. They were telling me that they had not had too much rain. Not like Fort William which had a h,,, of a lot.
Glen Nevis next on th 27th to check leccy fence and change the battery. Took the Wot4 but did not attempt to fly, the water covering 3/4 of the runway and the wind goiing from flat calm to 30/35 mph. This kind of windiness is very common at this patch due to the surounding terrain.
31st Dec. My Son and my Daughter with their kids arrive to bring in the New Year. Son collapses with the flu, even worse for me I felt ill, then was unconcious from the 1st for three days. Recovery still ongoing due to pesky persistant cough. Nowt but gales and rain since, near non stop.
2006 99.22 inch of rain
Dec 20.00 inch of rain
