Streatham Kite Festival

Years ago, when I still lived with my folks, my brother and neighbour both had decent so-called "Power Kites" of the same model. On occasion they would stack the two together. I remember one time they flew the pair in a force 5 gusting 6. My brother also built a buggy which he steered with his feet whilst flying the kites. It was excellent fun, though I only ever flew one at a time.

Having seen a post elsewhere on my flist, I learned that this coming weekend there's an event called Streatham Kite Festival. (Taking place on Streatham Common)

With this in mind, on Thursday I bought a rather posh power kite - the same kind that my brother and neighbour had.

Anyway, the point of this post, other than nostalgia, is to ask if anyone wants to come along with me? I'm busy in the morning, but ca be there for a little after midday.

I hope the wind picks up - it's been a bit slight over the past couple of days.
