Windy in the park

Useful session in the park tonight.  More pleasant than it could've been given the remnants of hurricane Katia. Thanks and well done to those who made it and to Darren and Elaine for again helping.

These will normally go ahead whatever the weather. Any change to plans will be posted here. You should, therefore, bring suitable clothing and footwear and dry stuff to change into afterwards.
