Friday the 13th!

Unlucky for some.......Flight from Raglan on Friday the 13th on a lovely clear morning...1st launch since Easter Sunday!......Safe landing but awkward access for retrieval!....Farmer demanded 250-300 pounds to be given to a church charity (we had offered a reasonable 60 pounds) before he would let us on 'his' land....turns out he was only renting the field from his neighbour. Said neighbour escorted us to the field and demanded a couple of bottles of red wine for his trouble! He was offered a cash landing fee which he refused...."My wife likes a glass of red occasionally".....Good things happen to good people!...
