Deary me. Only just arrived and so many unhappy faces.

First off - yes it was muddy, the bogs didn't work, and firemen were better employed pumping out people's living rooms. Fine, cancel the airshow.

Second off - For two weeks leading up to the event the show's official website stated that the wet weather would not be a problem and on the day of the event, Sunday morning, the same website stated that the show would be going ahead and actually told people to attend! That is my gripe.

I put up with happy coppers & other wonderful emergency services folk everyday of my working week, which occassionally includes Sunday's so please don't get distracted by my whinge at Lincolnshire's finest.
