I couldnt help this one. Whilst sitting on the patio by the River this evening, I heard the gentle putter of a DH Gipsy engine. I ran inside to pickup Betsy (oh god my camera has a name!!) and these she was G-ABAG floating gently over the fields over the river.
What a wonderful sight, but I cant help thinking what was she doing so far from home at this time of night (the time was 18.35 local at I am by the Thames at Sutton Courtenay just south of Abingdon). Not that I am complaining of course, she did make a lovely change from Pumas and Merlins :ok:

Sorry for the poor quality. It caught me on the hop so I didnt get set up properly.
