Saturday 5th September 2009

Early start for us today as we had to get to Seething by 08:30 for the airshow briefing ... yawn - I was sleepy!! Debs was very nervous as she was FDD and had lots to do & worry about - I did tell her not to worry as I was there to help her .... but she didn't look too relaxed about that!!! Well her brief was ok and all the pilots behaved! Poor mum was a bit stuck coz of the wind and couldn't actually land at Seething (boo - I missed her & wanted to see her!) But she based out of Hardwick & done a lovely routine with John Dodds in a cub... need to find her some music to display to then that will look perfect! Uncle Dave & Grandad made it in in the Mustangs and done a good paired display ... after Grandad 'shot' down a ME108 ... wish i was with him - I'd have got him Grandad!! Then Nigel & Debs started chucking Teddy Bears out of the Yak for a 'Ted Devil Parachute Display' .... oooohhh not sure I want to fly with them again - I don't want to be chucked out!! Anyway after the display I got a treat - I went to spend some time with Uncle Dale at Anglia Flight at Norwich INTERNATIONAL (wooo!!!) Airport. We had a nice flight back in a C182 with his daughter Scarlett - ahhh she's a sweetie ... wonder what fun we'll get up to on my little holiday ....
