Yay!!! At last – our big day – the bearfacedcheek2010 Airshow!!!! It started off misty & a bit foggy in places this morning and therefore held people up for a while – but then the weather broke and it was the most glorious day – just the sort of day you pray for – fantastic!! The day was great – mum & me were kept busy on our stall … Nannie Diane came & helped us, as did Uncle Paul. We sold loads of calendars – mum has less than 100 left now! Loads of raffle tickets to win me (who can refuse that!!) were also sold, as well as raffle tickets for prises on the day – cor we were busy!
Then it was time for the air display – I wanted to fly, but mum wouldn’t let me – said I had to help promote the calendar & tickets … boo!! Well the guys (& gel!) were brilliant and put on a fantastic display – saw a new formation grouping of the Harvard & the Yak – hey they looked good together … wonder if we’ll see them again?? Debs was kept busy doing her FDD bit – have to keep these display pilots in order you know!! She also had to keep the public away from their aircraft during the display – good job she’s bossy – hee hee!! Well all in all a fantastic day & we were all shattered at the end – have to see how much we’ve raised now …
