| Flight details: | Arrived at Bo Peep about 10:30 to find several pilots in the air. Ridge soared for a while before finding a thermal and climbing out to 800m. Now a long way back, I tried to push forwards, but lost all my height getting back to the ridge. Caught another thermal, and this time went with it up to 900m. Crossed to another cloud and found lift but watched the cloud dissolve above me. I crossed over the river, but failed to find lift, and landed in a field by the football field at Saltdean, a distance of about 12km. Short and sweet, but lovely to get away from the hill for once!
