Easter Trip Away 2

Hi folks,

still at the airfield we waited with trepidation for the tandem parachutists to go up and low and behold the plane took off with them all on board.


It had been very gusty but finally out they jumped.


You can see them both strapped together with the novice in front.


Touchdown, most landed on the airstrip and some in the sheep field next to the runway.................


.....and this one just clipped the trees. All was ok and they all returned to get..................


.............................................congratulations from their partners.


Well done to all and it was back to the campsite for a warm up and some dinner.

The evening came very quickly and after dinner it was our turn to entertain in our van with Gloria and Tony and a few tipples. Then it was off to bed with the hope that it would warm up tomorrow with the fan heater whirring through the night, hoping for a warmer Sunday.

Thanks for looking and tomorrow we will see what Sunday brought.

Thanks for dropping by.

Best regards, Mike
