Some photo's from the trip.... Climb out from Oxford

The image URL which imgur.com gives you needs to be the direct one to the .jpg file - in this case

You use what imgur calls the "direct link". The one which imgur.com rather unhelpfully calls "message boards and forums" works for certain types of off the shelf forum software, not on EuroGA which uses custom software.
If in doubt about whether a given image URL is OK to use, paste it into a new web browser URL window and check that the result is just the picture, with no text etc around it.

Jason - yes I know it came from GFS but I wonder which site you used.
Rocketroute. Ogimet was the same though.
How far before the flight was the wind forecast generated?
Peter, thank you for posting the pic. I will have a go at some of the others.
I got a wind forecast at 10.30 Sunday morning before leaving for Oxford Kid. Certainly did not forecast the winds we got.
Some more pics from the trip ( I hope lol)
I know most of you are used to this view, but was my first GA flight above 7,000ft
