    Will see what I can pack, if it is raining I will have to find shelter on a suitable footplate *nudge nudge wink wink* I can earn my keep with a suitable shovel :-#

    Well,
    I'm just back from Statfold, and although it was rather wet, I had a BRILLIANT time there (as always) helping out at the balloon loop points.
    'MAX' looked and sounded superb!

    Thanks to All the Statfold Team for the excellent show you put on.
