Myself and family were wobbling round the perimeter last Friday on our new bikes (me doing most of the wobbling). A great deal of scrub and turf has been cleared from the blast pens, which are looking very presentable (I think much of the later asphalt has also been taken up, revealing the original concrete surface). Very well done to whoever was involved (I think English Heritage had a hand in it, but probably other contractors/volunteers?). It now doesn’t take a lot of imagination to visualise a scene at dispersal, erks scurrying round a parked Hurricane etc.
It’s good to see the gliding club in action, which breathes life into the place. (any thoughts as to the red glider in use last week? Not the normal type I see there).
