These often used to come over Beryl's house. I haven't seen one for a long time now.

Thanks .. look at the blue sky , that was late Saturday afternoon , it was a lovely day ...........

did better than us amy, its been gloomy here for days :o(

The balloon looks lovely against that blue sky!

Nice photo....

Up, up and away. I would like to go up again, it was a marvellous experience.

Thanks ... you've been up Gee , wow ,, you are brave ! My daughter and her husband have , we looked after the grandchildren while they went up , they looked on in amazement as mummy and daddy floated away waving at them ...
I didn't dare to risk it as I have a disc . missing , having burst it many years ago , they say you can have a very bumpy landing ... :o(

It was something I always wanted to do, Amy, and my daughters arranged it for my 50th birthday (a long time ago now!). It was great fun watching them following in the car down below. The landing was OK and then we had champagne and birthday cake in the middle of a field :)

Sounds great Gee ,whats next ! a parachute jump ? .

I would have liked to be able to do it , I have to tell you that watching us from above daughter and hubby wondered why it was taking us so long to move from our spot as we were intending to take the little'uns for a walk along the river path before taking them home , daughter had left the push chair folded up in the car boot , and do you think we could assemble it , you need a science degree for those things , LOL .. it took us a good half hour !! x
