In my official capacity as transport coordinator for the Purley boys I can say Piero and I will be doing our best to come along with whoever we can press gang into joining us.
Will be nice to meet a few fliers from that neck of the woods.

As far as we (Keith & I) know at this point (being on holiday in Dieppe) the Solent affair is entirely Allans baby and nothing to do with STACK. He is not currently even a member. I dont think there is likely to be much competition so I would say just go ahead; I will be coming (diary willing).

Bristol/Bath Better flying day at a date that I can meet, (without Trick Out competition?....)
Provisionally yes, yes please count me in. - would love the opportunity to learn from other stunters.

21st September update - Ooops - Apparently I am down to attend the Stokes Bay better flying day :oops:

Sorry - perhaps next time.

Ok I'm in, looking forward to joining in the fun.

OK, back from Dieppe.

Just checked all my emails and there has been no email from Allan informing STACK of his event. It is not sanctioned by STACK, it is a Close Encounters/ Solent Kite fliers thing. Maybe I should copyright the name "Better Flying Day" for STACK?

I think there are enough fliers for both events to happen the same day. After all the Bath one will be much more trick oriented rather than basic flying,

EDIT - just checked and we are unable to be there, we have a previous engagement :-(

Yep. Away this weekend but will post final details Sunday night or Monday and confirm pick up arrangements for my passengers.

Fingers crossed for good weather.

I hope for your sake that it is Emil, have you found a bag for transporting kites on your bike or are catching a lift with Paul? Hold you to the promise of good weather though!

I'll be riding to Paul's first. I still haven't got a bag no, I strap all the kites together in a bundle onto the side of the bike, works ok. but I'm not happy with that and should really be using a protective bag, especially now with the wet muddy roads in the winter.

If anybody has a bag they're looking to sell, please bring it along and I'll take a look at it.
