I used to be like that- my wife called me the flying evangelist. I've
since learned that in a function room with 200 people, only one or two
have any real interest in soaring. It boggles my mind, but there it is.

Got to confess, it is absolutely baffling.

I find friends and family are at first surprised and faintly bemused to
find that I've got myself mixed up in this game, but from then on they
all seem to develop the same glazed, listless expression whenever my own
eyes (inevitably) drift skywards or conversation so much as hints at
either flying or the weather.

Strange people, the lot of 'em.
