Take-off or landing?

For hairy landings, try Cork. 50° crosswinds are commonplace.

I have the T-shirt thanks...when we landed the 3 of us our row realised we were all holding hands!

Planes are arriving and one's just left for Heathrow, so there's hope.
Just to be sure I'm knocking back a double Jamesons and Ice :-)

Leeds-Bradford had three touch and go's/aborted/flyarounds this morning.

No real wind here yet.

Opening the door to the 'heads', it was about a foot deep in 'waste product'.

Stena Challenger?

As I haven't been feeling up to doing too much for a while I had given my clarinets a bit of a rest. I was surprised that the new old one I got at the weekend has given me a new interest. It may not be a clarinet of choice by some people, but I am finding it a lot easier to play. I found that I on the Selmer I would be running out of puff trying to cover up all of the holes trying to reach the lower notes, but I am finding that I can do it on the Boosey and Hawkes Regent with plenty to spare. Both clarinets look similar, the only difference I can find is that the bore on the Boosey is slightly larger. I tried 2 new notes today.

Given the weather isn't nice, I have beef stewing away for the next 90 minutes for beef and ale pie.

Good luck to Jack @User , I hope he feels better soon.

I'm sorry to report that NettieTheDog is at the vets for an over night stay, she's not eating and there was blood in her stool this morning. Vet thinks it's probably pancreatitis playing up, so she's on a drip and pain killers ATM.

In other news, it's bloody windy out there and all my ginger nuts are broken.

for NettieTheDog

We need a pooch sick bay.

Good Lord it's blowy out there. The fence seems to be holding up, and the slates are all present and correct so far...

A good sign at the gate....

If its a tailwind I should get home before I leave, if headwind I may never get home.

 

[Fab Foodie]

Rain..... 45 degree angle.
Just as we're about to walk across the tarmac....

 

[Fab Foodie]

Shoot....technical prob with plane :-(
Waiting news.

20 minutes delay....and so it starts....

I have just given up on trying to eat the most horrible pear.

My rose arch is to-ing and fro-ing like windscreen wipers in this wind.

 

[Fab Foodie]

Will you be back for Christmas?

Maybe. Which year were you thinking?
