Likewise. Would prefer Carsington to Draycote but happy to do either if the date suits.

ade and joe up for anything as we dont currently, have a base to sail. next weekend is good. Draycott or Carsington. How about once a month for a regular outing cherubing, Say the inbetween weekends from the opens. (ie... next weekend or 27th or 28 April as Weston is 11 12 May). and looks like June is free-ish as well. well up for it! lets try to make a date. I like this warm stuff!!!

sounds good, i will have a look at the club calender tomorrow.
il tell th eoffice that we might be expecting some cherubs in the near future, if there is a few of you, best bet is to phone ahead, so they have a little time to get the paperwork out.

Damn, forgot to look at the weekend, will look on Wednesday night.

Out of interest would it be possible for some club member to have a go?
If so I will see how many people are interested.

Loco and Sweet Dreamzzz had a stunning day at Draycote on Sat. Sun, Wind, Midges, lots of water drunk, loads of spills and a few really fast waaaaahy moments... Nigel even commented on how 'small' Draycote is he ran out of water once or twice.
So the Midlands posse is set for another soon, Draycote or Carsington. Me being bossy now... dates and venue prefs please everyone, so that we can arrange another wild cheruby session. 
NB. Draycote visitors area has been landscaped and trimmed well back and the launching facilities are brill. enough for 20 cherubs now all on the grass!

Yep...it's official - modern Cherubs are fast and run out of water quickly.

Ace weather and we learned that some foiling Moth skills transfer to Cherubs and some don't. Jamie P took time off recovering from concussion sustained during a pitch pole in his foiler to demonstrate how to make a Cherub go upwind and how to ditch one quickly downwind by twin wiring with kite whilst heeling to windward (you've seen all those Moth videos...). We also found out how good a sea anchor I make when still attached to a wire - though we were still doing 5 knots with 3 sails still pulling hard.

See y'all at Weston (weather permitting)
