Soaring High
6 Oxford members soared high above Oxfordshire this evening, enjoying the beautiful weather, clear skies, and dazzling sun. Chris, a member of both clubs, kindly arranged the opportunity for us to try our hand at gliding, and once some of us managed to wedge ourselves into the remarkably small cockpits we took to the skies to enjoy the beautiful countryside and the joys of silent flight. No mid-flight snacks but they did provide parachutes 
, landing was more akin to a bathtub down a grassy hill!
Afterwards we were joined by half a dozen of the more sensible members of the branch who had decided to turn up just for the exceptional BBQ the gliding club served. Safe to say, weight limits would be exceeded if this had been served first! Thanks to Chris and the Oxford Gliding Club for an excellent evening! Erica Gassor, OXFORD BRANCH SECRETARY
