Hi J&T :P

It had to be removed, or Amy, our great niece, would not give Uncle Patrick a 6th birthday kiss, 'cos of 'that furry thing under your nose' :lol:

That's me put in my place by yet another woman :whistle:

Best regards and love to Terri.x :thumbs:

It was an awesome day, and great to meet good aviation friends yet again :thumbs:

Special thanks to Darren, despite that 'Postman Pat' shot :Wow:

Hi Paddy

Not everyone on the trailer went inside!

I'm in the pic (4th from the right, blue and white footy shirt on), and I was in the field all day :P :P

Hope you all had a great day behind the wire

Don't feel left out Roger, you were photographed from the inside looking out instead :lol:
