Left home this morning around 7.45 am ,went to Old Buck in my vintage Riley sports car and helped get the Stearman out of the hangar.
My hire aircraft (PA28) had been left outside, it was fuelled up and the morning dew was drying off rapidly in the warm sunshine.
Took off around 9.15 and flew to Woodbridge then up the coast to Aldeburgh where I look around the river and checked my pals boat was on the moorings.
Caried on up to Great Yarmouth then south of Norwich,got back to Old Buck around 10.30,drove home, picked up my boating gear and was down at Aldeburgh before noon, we had a brilliant afternoon on the boat, out to sea and then back up to Iken Cliff on the River Alde.
Now back home, picked fresh vegetables and salad from the garden, nursing a decent G&T and preparing to barbecue some lamb.
The perfect day,it couldn’t get much better than this.
Sadly, it's not so good for very many unfortunate folks around this troubled world at the present time!
