A failed attempt at xc. Almost an hour of thermal hunting eventually rewarded with a good climb so decided to stay with it. Was joined by a fellow pilot but had to change course to avoid close proximity. This resulted in falling out of the narrow rough thermal and failing to save myself on the way down combined with bad choises and bad luck resulted in a quick friendship development between myself and a hedgerow. Lessons learnt. Nothing broken. Brisk walk back to the launch to try again.
