Club Trip to Martinborough – Sun 11th Dec

Don’t forget about the club trip to Martinborough on Sunday 11 December.

If you want to come along, but haven’t put your name down yet, it’s not too late, give us a call at the club or send an email, indicating if you would prefer to fly or drive over.

This is a good opportunity to do some flying, get away from the crazy pre-Christmas shoppers and enjoy the relaxed country life, even if it is just for one day!
