I was up on the Moor, after spending some time watching the Mortar Magnets being loaded. I saw one fly over, in and out of the clouds, but missed any drops that might have taken place. It was a wild and lonely place up there today. Saw no Military personnel (except of course when I drove through the garrison).

I was at the DZ, but there was no DZ party. What time did you see the Herc, as I was there for the full drop time but never saw or heard anything?

About 1:10pm - a Herc slipped in and out of the cloud, I was just west of the DZ (it was to my east) and I drove to the look point (lower Swale view) on Downholme Moor, but no further sightings. I been parked at Leeming from 11 to around 12:30 (I maybe left a bit before). Saw the Grobs and Hawks in and out, and the Hercs being loaded.
