Wind...Rain...Wind...Rain...Wind... !!!!! :-(

Over the last week or so my flying has been virually no existent mainly due to the awful weather here on the south coast. So much for the hot summer we were promised!

On Sunday, Chris and I were so desperate to fly our helis, we braved the elements and tried to fly our 450's in a small barn in Soberton. I was only able to just hover about but Chris who is a lot more skillful than me managed to dodge around the tractor and odd hay bail. But as is always the case all good things come to an end which involved Chris crashing inverted into a bail of hay. Broken blades and grips now on order.

It was my better halfs birthday on Monday and he got a great card from one of our friends. Dave may not be overly enthusiatic about my heli addiction but his friends think its great :-).

My friend Sue unbelievably won the Midland caption competition the week after me. What are the odds of that happening. Two Sue's winning one week after the other. This sets the scene for a challenge now :-) What do you say Sue?
