Really infuriating!

I went out to Galinat again this afternoon to see if there had been any improvement in the state of the airfield. I have to say that I wasn’t holding out much hope so I wasn’t disappointed with what I found. Yup, it was at least as wet as when I got bogged down in my car the other day, if not more so, and you could still clearly see the tyre marks left by my car when Christian drove off down the field after my young DJ friend (because that’s what he was) and I had pushed it out of the mud.

It’s hardly surprising that the airfield is still as wet as it is because every time there’s a little bit of sunshine and/or wind to help it to dry out a bit, soon afterwards it rains and puts it right back at square one again, because the ground is so saturated. This time last year we were getting some lovely spring-like days but I wasn’t flying because although I already had the X-Air, I wasn’t able to do the work on it to make it flyable because I was working on my new fireplace. Now it’s at Galinat and ready to fly, and I’d love to, but the weather is doing everything it can to stop me. It’s totally maddening 😡
