Sunday. Flyable. Maybe?

Qobby, Dorita, Annette and I escaped to Montenegro for a flying week at the end of the summer season.
Montenegro is relatively small country (pop 600k) trying to join the EU and competing with nearby Croatia for the tourist dollar and coming second. The coast to the north is reasonably well developed but the rest of the country still asleep.
Strange strange day. Ended up making an early afternoon dash to Witchie when skies suddenly brightened and wind backed towards south. Only short-lived and back to westerlies with big cloud build up threatening rain as I passed Benger. Arrived at Witchie just after Gerald & Garry, and breeze was back to nice and straight onto the south face. Hmmm.
We just had a big club day out on Mountbenger. After some initial concerns about wind direction/speed we got some unexpectedly good conditions for mid-October.
A second trip to Singlie in a week and it didn't disappoint.
Plenty of lift and easy to push well out front, although quite lumpy in places. Good fun but not relaxing flying.
This site is quickly becoming one of my favourites - it just hoovers up the lift from the valley.
