Anyone want a lift from Sleap? In a C150, not a helicopter. Preferably someone who can read a map, so that I can look at the view and not have to do any work.

Ah, maybe I could bring my New Toy™ along.

Was planning a slow trip up to Scotland, but that's been scuppered. I suppose this could the start of a westward week instead.

Well If I am not working then I think I may just pop down. Not been to Compton for years, did pass it a few days ago though on a photo shoot. Always a nice field to spend a sunny afternoon sat watching the world go by.

Smile Alternate

For those who, like myself, are unable to make the Sunday due to other commitments a small group of us are having a fly-in to Dunkeswell on the Bank Holiday Monday the 30th May.

Anybody is welcome to join us, arriving in time for lunch.

Hope to be there, either in a Falke or Piper Cub (both of which are yellow).

Going to miss it for the stupidest of reasons. This dim twit only let his medical expire on the 21st and can't get a renewal (assuming I pass ) until the 30th! Yup that's right, I found a wonderful AME who is prepared to work on a Bank Holiday!!
