Report from Portland West
Took off on the spur after a walk up due to a traffic jam.
Enjoyed nearly 2 hrs of sublime coastal flying in the company of a couple of Peregrine Falcons and 3 compatriots. It turned W and as it went towards WSW we all landed at the bottom and enjoyed bacon and sausage butties at Quiddles cafe.

Report from the Jurassic Coast
On the way homeward we heard it was flyable at Ringstead so we had 40 mins there and with increasing wind decided to land.
However, after arriving at home we heard that conditions became much more favourable, typical. Though the best turned out to be at Bell.
