Not many to be honest, the runway is still flyable 😀

Getting our book published. Getting my first memorial up (and getting to know the siblings of the pilot’s). Meeting up with veterans of 609 squadron a couple of times, and drinking with them, (and with Stapme of 603). Continuing my work on 609, and every time i’ve had more documents and pictures thrust upon me.

High light, My son Ewan being born. Just about made the rest survivable.

Highs:
* Graduating from school! I’m may officially call me a bachelor of business and management.
* Seeing the 3 Concordes come into LHR.
* Getting a new camera, Sony F717.

Lows:
* Being workless, I have (had) some temporary simple jobs like order picking and cleaning but nothing I had trained for.
* Finishing my graduation assignment. Even though I am very proud and happy I made it, I do miss my ex collegues at Europa Worldwide Logistics, Erith!

Highlights for me;

Buying the MG just in time to have the roof down throughout the best summer we’ve had for years. 😀

Flying solo again for the first time since 1994.

Spending a fabulous day in Peterborough (never thought THAT would be possible!) watching Wednesday go second in the league and then retiring to the Peterborough Beer Festival in the field next door and getting absolutely mullered… 😀
