N wind and low base

Back to flying after an unseasonal longish spell of very poor weather.   We were up early today, the first flight being quite easy to stay up, though with the low base  tricky to stay free of cloud.   We landed after around 40 minutes when the clouds seem to cycle up and start showing some showers to the NE.   Within and hour of landing  things had settled and we were off again with hopes of a flight to Barco.  However once again the clouds started to develop and also the wind in the valley started to pick up.   In less than an hour we were once again landing.   Strong winds prevented us from an evening flight.
