Amber storm warning

The winds are picking up already and I was surprised to see a glider up this morning.   I decided to quickly hike up to the aerodrome.  ... I say quick hike, but it is so muddy that for every  two steps forward I had one big slide backwards.  
My struggle kept the local sheep entertained.
Made it up eventually only to see the gliders being towed back to the hangar.      
I don't blame them.

Needless to say I have once again been compelled to arse about with this image.  The original "before Spishy faffed" image is here.
