I've been looking forward to today - as I get to see mum again after my 2 week holiday ... I have missed her. I flew with Uncle Dale in G-BOTH to Elmsett for their Open Day. I was ‘guest of honour’ on the ‘Ted-Devils’ stall ... these are the dare-devil teddies that go parachuting from the Yak!!! Well rather them than me – why would you want to leave a perfectly serviceable aircraft??!! So instead of parachuting I made sure we were plugging the calendar – I quite enjoyed being the sales girl! Mum also took me flying on her display – we had our photo taken 1st & it was for the UK Airshow Forum (ooooh – POSH) - & he also got some pictures of our display (oh ok ... mum’s display!!). The SAR Seaking was in from Wattisham & I wanted to go & say hello to my old mates – but I was kept busy on the stall ... but I did make sure I told EVERYONE about the display next week!
Well after our fun-filled day I headed home with mum in the Stearman – she was a bit nervous as it has been a while since she’s flown it – but she was fine. We finished off the day with a BBQ at Hardwick – glad to be back!!
