Tim Moran come down annually to repack Wormingfords chutes at their club site. He only charges £25 per chute. He is coming down during w/c 22/2 or 1/3. If any one wants their chute done let me know and I will arrnge to get them over to him. You save at least a fiver in these poor economic times.

If you weren't aware, Sarah Lee runs the Rattlesden GC "100 Club".

This has monthly prizes and payment is by standing order. For more details on costs and an application form, drop Sarah a line or ask when you met here next.

As posted a while back last year, there is a good supply of shock ropes and weak links available in the stores building.

If you're on site on a flying day and need spares or replacements, the store building should be your first port of call.

In case club members aren't aware, Lorna Wilcox manages and supplies the latest copies of Sailplane and Gliding (S&G) on behalf of the club.

So if you want your own copy, get in touch with Lorna for pricing and availability.
