Singlie Hill - 30 August 2015
I’d been to Singlie only once before, and didn’t fly it that time. So this is a brand new hill for me. Always good to experience new things.

Well got out flying at last. Only had a small window of time so headed to Witchie Knowe with children in tow.
Not quite strong enough an first take off, a few beats and them a bottom landing. (not a bad thing being very rusty and had to get rid of the two field mice stowed away in my harness)
After a long spell deciding where to go in the morning it seamed after a drought of flying due to crap weather. I had scoured from north of England - wind SE late afternoon, to west coast of Cumbria - SW.
It was hard to make a choice in fact stuck for choice but decided on Thornnill as i had something to prove to my self about strong wind cross wind take offs.
Well I have broken my duck for this year and managed to fly at tinto.
It was bright when I arrived around 11:30, and there was a reasonable breeze So it looked like a good day in prospect.
