That a/c looks pretty smart. I like La9’s, and am now waiting for La9’s.

Paul Bonhomme was driving a diesel-smoking sky-tractor? Hmm. What had he done to upset Stephen?

I wish the propwash would blow away the yellow jackets / stepladders / windbreaks / Sunday Market stalls / Mackerel.

Tether my flock? I don’t need to. I wear velcro pants. So there, Jer-Sey B-oy. (Whats Leg-ends? And why no hyphens in brother-in-law?)

“two and half days of aeroplanes” “Unfortunately I have to travel back down to the West Country on the Sunday”

How did the accounting exams go? Judging by that, I’d not get too excited about promotion.

And yes, they do allow women onto the ‘drome – although quite why they’re allowed in the car in the first place I do not know. At the price of entrance, thats a new book AND PEACE AND BLOODY QUIET TO READ IT IN!

I shall not be wearing my hair, and the blazer get-up will not be worn until the evening do’s. I’ll be found mostly around the 609 boys at the Vector Finearts tent – I am anticipating a weekend of phrases such as:

“Please pass the salt, Cheval” and “How do you keep your moustache free of soup, Pinkie?” and with 603 dining on Friday night, perhaps “One for the road, Stapme?”

Hehe. I feel a most wonderful weekend. And I get to kcik a Jersey boy in the pants, too!

I could have sworn i’d put the times down. Oh well – theres so many things to do!

Assemble at 10:30, move off shortly after, flypast at 11, then the remainder of the service (an hour tops) before tea and coffee on the lawn. All very civilised.

A question – has anyone who is coming got a camcorder by any chance? I can get one, but I need at least two – preferably 3. Idea is 1 on a tripod recording a wide view, one focused on the lectern, and one hand held to capture the parade and aircraft.

Chris – EDP hopefully, but definately Yarmouth Mercury and probably Lowestoft Journal.

Sounds like a very good combination to me.

Moggy – Calor gas costs approximately 1p per 27Cm3. Wages for blob muppets add on 12p per hour (sneering bonus can triple that) and the pitch costs £14,000 as it occupies the space of 2 windbreaks.
