Conditions pretty poor in SE England. Propagation at times (especially Sunday) 
seemed little better than last year and high winds constantly threatened to 
destroy all the antennnas. Generally 15 seemed the best band, but though we 
worked a lot of W/VEs including much zone 3 there were few really outstanding 
runs.  As for JA, almost nothing - a killer for us as the site here favours 
the east. 

Still we survived, even if the 40m beam didn't!
