    Exam Results

    thanks for the congrad's mr buggy, if am not mistaken though you teach computing..... 90% of youngsters coming into schools thesedays already know how to use a computer, so theoretically they could possable learn most of it themselves, thats why you got the position with relativly few qualifications..... lol ko, im sure that under that rather doted exterior, there is a rather intelectual and intelligent core....... cheers neway m8.

    180's?

    Downwind 180's: Be moving backwards at around 5 to 10 mph. With kite reasonably low, but not too low . Turn the wheels upwind and the buggy will start to move around. About halfway round turn the otherway (in to the movement of the buggy) and you will skid round and move off as normal (hopefully). Remember to lean away from the kite but at the same time keep as much weight as possible over tha back of the buggy - this allows the front to swing round better. Upwind 180's: Start moving backwards as before. But have the kite sitting higher. This time turn as if you were doing a normal, forward downwind turn. I.e point the wheels downwind. As you do this lower the kite slightly, this is the crucial bit. You have to lean under the lines, away from the kite and allow the extra power to pull you round. If you are not wearing a harness then it will be harder to do this as you are leting the lines go over your head. Once you have mastered this allow the kite to do a full down turn and when you are completing the 180 turn downwind and you should be able to do a reverse 360 without buch problem. HAVE FUN!!!
  6. in general the best winds look to arrive during the afternoon anyway so plenty of time to relax in de morning then.....
  7. You dont have to be 18 to appreciate the stuff, just to buy it:p
  8. well i was going to say id be p**sed by the time the gates opened as we will be there at bout 6am tomorrow MORNING!!! (were travelin ovrnight from scotland) to avoid the weekend traffic. But now it looks like we'll be keepin warm near the ruins (hope no one was hurt and that they have insurance :D )
  9. oh dont worry tom you'll be singing soon enough (if what i hear from last years antics is true (toilets......) that is. U wont forget this 1 m8 :D
  10. well this is my first time going so i cant say im not bothered. mind you i dont have work to go to exams to sit (all done hehe) other kiting events to attend better sites wives to amuse (in any way) favours to carry out promises to keep or PEOPLE TO PLEASE!! so i will be going:D
  11. having contact with the ambulane crew would be handy as long as we arrange with the crew some conditions for use of that particular frequency. Looking at the map that came wif de tickets the ambulance crew could easily be a long long jog away from an incident. BTW channel 4 sounds fine 4 me "James McG" and the oldy is "Jim McG".
  12. erm i play the drums (dont have any though), if anyone happens to have a spare set lying around and can fit them into the car i will give dem a bash!!!
  13. All the more reason to cherish the moment as it happens than isnt it. And an xcuse to take plenty of pictures so as that savoring can last that wee bit longer.... But with any luck mell will be sane enough to organise another (PLEASE DO!!) and the savoring can cantinue once more i cant spell can i
  14. Err some flat land buggy tricks (if conditions are right) not that im offering to do them. I lack style and err what was it balls?? And also some of the social aspect (beer tent antics )
