Does anyone know of any kite groups in or near the Manchester area? I know of the Northern Kite Group but so far have had no success in contacting Ron Ogden on his phone number - is he on holiday?? I have also been in touch with Keith at Krazy Kites in the Wirral, but so far have not been able to locate anyone more local to the area I'm in (Salford, to be precise). Basically I need someone to give me a bit of practical help and advice with my new Psycho - anyone wanna help me? :-) Thanks Helen. ----- P.S.

Keep trying - I do not think he is away. I spoke to him last Friday. >I have also been in touch with Keith at Krazy Kites in the Wirral, but so >far have not been able to locate anyone more local to the area I'm in >(Salford, to be precise). Cant think of any nearer to you at all. >Basically I need someone to give me a bit of practical help and advice >with my new Psycho - anyone wanna help me? :-) The best I can suggest is take a trip down to Birmingham on Sunday and join The Midlands Kite Fliers at their fly-in where help will be at hand. Other events are happening nearer to you later on in the year, and we do have members in your area. I could put you in touch with them. If you want more information or directions then email me, or phone me on 01332 669203.

The West Coast Flyers meet there most Sunday's, depending on the tides and the weather. St. Annes beach must be about the best place for buggying in the country. Today there was nearly 1 mile between sea and shore. Directions: Get on the M6 then either follow the signs for Lytham St. Annes or carry on the Motorway and get on the M55 for Blackpool then head for St. Annes.
