Mum & I went off on a little fly out to Shipdham today to have a meeting about the Open Day in September – we met up with Nigel & Debs again, and I got to meet Uncle Phil for the 1st time (heard he was a very nice ‘Uncle’ to Pudsey when Nigel & Debs had a flying year with him). It was a good meeting and it almost seems we're there – just got a few last minute issues – like toilets & banners, but we’re working on it!!! Mum had arranged for me to have a little holiday with Auntie Janet (the wife of one of the naked glider pilots) … ooooh hope he doesn’t want to do another photoshoot!! So she left me in the care of Auntie Janet as she wanted to get home & celebrate Paul passing his test to become a flying instructor – yay well done Paul!! Auntie Janet arranged for me to go for lots of glider flights … I was rather worried at first as there is NO ENGINE!!!!! But Lauren was fab & showed me exactly what to do and how to come safely back to earth – wow – these glider pilots are quite skilful! We had to stop our gliding for a little while as Debs went solo in the Yak for the 1st time (but it was ok coz we went again as soon as she was down!!) – and then it was time for a little celebration – yippee!!
