Not an IBMer by any chance are you Ian?


Funny you should say that! I'm not but my missus is :shock: . The term gets used quite a bit when she's chasing people for their timesheets, somehow it seemed appropriate :) .

Stuart : Yes - you're off it too, mate. Got your message on the 'other' board. Thanks.

Had a blast today at Chester. Good company and some nice flying conditions (if you were further away from the arena!).

Glad I made the long journey!

No fly-off for 3rd/4th.

A really tough competition in 0-2mph wind! There were some very close rounds here but well done to Mike for coming out on top and getting one back against Bryan. 1-1 now :-)

Thanks to everyone for turning up and making it a competition. Shame we couldn't have ordered better wind - I'll see what we can do for next time 8)

Well done Ian, nice weekend. I'll update the rankings with these and the Bristol results (Hmmm... seem to have forgotten about them).

Any goings on at Margam? (or Margate for that matter) - otherwise I'll tidy up the standings as final for the season and get set up for the winter leagues.

Well done indeed. Didn't get to see what Mike was up to, too busy dropping lines and running the kite forward as far as poss in 30 seconds, but I was dead chuffed with my 3 goes - I flew some really nice stuff. (humble self opinion I know, sorry). So Mr. Bakardi Mike must've flown a blinder - Nice one.

Must admit, I was surprised I got through that round. Especially when you pulled out a 360 to end :cool:

It's a great format though........ win lose or draw...definitely my favorite.

Look forward to our next duel :wink:
