Kite Flying in Glossop


Following in the footsteps of 'Ludwig Wittgenstein', and driven in no small part by the enthusiasm of Michael Howard and ofcourse Hazel, the Interactve Arts first year students (or those that could make it anyway) along with some some other fellow students from MMU, braved the elements and headed to to the Grouse Inn- Chunal Moor. A bacon butty and hot cup of coffee later and we headed on to the moors.



There were kites of all shapes and sizes, some truely stunning and some made of the most simple of materials....a newspaper, but all fantastic when they took to the air. Although on this occaision we flying for the pure fun of it and not really for any scientific reason, it was a fantasic day.


Unfortunately the kite that I took so much time over (Mmmmm!) never got to fly. It was broken and torn before we reached the site (oh well), but that being said I got some fantastic pictures and had a great time.
I'm looking forward to next year to see what the new guys come up with....can't wait.
