Train in USA or Europe??

I must be living in a different UK to you guys. This
year has been pretty good really.

fly I might as well go sailing.

Anywhere but the UK! It has been a particularly bad
season here

weatherwise.

Too true. The UK is always a pot-luck prospect, when
your activity is

weather

critical. A soaring friend of mine who's learning to
Paraglide, has been
grounded for a couple of weeks due to unfavourable
weather. That's the

main

reason I'm giving serious consideration to the western
USA.

Many of the US clubs I assumed didn't offer instruction,
do. The German

club looks

good, but doesn't have an English version.

Thanks.

Speaking entirely from my experiences, May was excellent and I thought
it was the start of a great year, but the last two months have been
pretty dire. OK for local soaring, I suppose, but nothing I could do a
significant xc in.

Maybe I should just practise harder :-(

Not that I think that it would cheer you up, but the reason for the last two
month's UK wheather is a pretty strong Acore high pressure (deviating all
cyclones to the north) which has given the Alps (at least the western part)
the best conditions since at least 10 years. And not just one day - since
beginning of June, the conditions are just tremendeous.

Sorry for that...
