Comments:Arrived mid-afternoon to find many had already left the hill.............employment can be a bind, but it does pay the bills!Took off in strong prevailing but with weakening thermals. Lamost given up when I connected with a half decent climb on Northern end of ridge. Never really got up into the zone but wrked what weak lift was left to land in probably the boggiest pit in the area.Lesson learnt - leave work earlier!
