    Cleeve Common - The 5th Edition

    Hey, starting one for once!

    There were alot of 4x4 going up the hill, but all the smaller cars were held back. I really wanted to try boardin gin the snow, was going to make a kicker too That would probably have ended in tears though

    Big thanks guys for all your help
    thanks colin for your help....no i aint going to show them how to fly either.
    someone said we should have let them launch it and see what happens i think pete said he was getting a kicking on the 6.5 blade so it would have a pay back for them to launch the 6.8 razor

    the police are still interviewing them and they have just left here after taking a statment off me.

    the kite we have checked over and it is un useable. it is covered in oily black stuff and black mold all over it. the handles are split, tha harness smells damp and moldy. the lines look fine and the back armour looks to be ok......................one question..........wheres the rest of my gear then as the police didnt look in there car, but i was told a few mimutes ago that they will have there houses and cars searched so theres hope yet.

    can anyone remember where he said the car boot sale was and wants the nearest flying site to it?

    Glad you got some of your kit back,seems odd to buy stuff miles away then try to fly it a few miles from where it was nicked!!!!!!!! hopefully the police might shed some light

    yer to right. it was well weird as i spoke to brian and we said ok we will go up for a couple of hours. got there and brian went to the right of where i was, i was setting up a new kite and shouted to brian, in the distance but right behind brian was this red/yellow thing flapping n the wind.

    then when we had sorted it all out i was told to get home and the police would be there in 45mins. so i kitted down and left for home. all the way home the traffic lights were green and all the cars on the narrow bits pulled over and let me pass. from the time the police siad 45mins to the time i got home was ................................yep 45mins. shame the police took a hour longer than they siad.hehe.
