I'm sure you'll all be delighted to hear, I've finally got to the end of a belting day out



Sorry it took so long to sort, and sorry (not) there were so many pictures. I hope you enjoyed looking as much as I enjoyed taking, and vastly more than I "enjoyed" sorting them!

Thanks Charles, the photo's don't really do the air show justice, as so many birds were in the air together it was a proper spectacle, not knowing which way to look for fear of missing some action.

Cheers Snappy :D Have you been? It's sort of over your way isn't it? 5 minutes off the A303, big brown tourist signs.

Thanks Linda.... There's a hint of sun in the air at the moment, so I might pop down to Portland, but Mrs PB did mention about cutting of the lawn, and trimming some tree or other.... a delicate balancing act lol
