Stop Taking Photos And Eat It

It's in full sun and rapidly melting, you muppet.
(It was still tasty).
A backup photo today.

Please Ensure All Drownings Take Place Over There

For safety, you understand. And it wouldn't do to trample the nice purple flowers over here. Yes, I am in a mildly unhinged frame of mind.

Firecat

A backup photo, taken at the Wales airshow a couple of days ago.

This thing is impressively manoeuvrable for what must be a heavy aircraft with a lot of water sloshing around in the back.

Still, I suppose water doesn't get airsick, complain or ask for a refund...

Before We Go Home

A backup photo today, it was a busy one packing up and driving home, then getting the van cleared out, cleaned, and refuelled ready to send back.

It was a really good holiday, in spite of my feeling pretty ropey at times.
I came home with almost as much beer as I'd left with, as I'd not wanted to poison myself with paracetamol and booze!

Firebirds

Click image to view a bigger version

In a completely unplanned but rather fortuitous turn of events, we discovered that our last full day in Wales coincided with the Wales Airshow, so we decided to go along and have a look.

It was a great day out, and I've still only got through culling the first of three sessions worth of photos - I rather surprised myself when I checked the camera in the evening and found that I'd taken nearly 4000 photos.
No wonder I was going through batteries like they're going out of fashion!

These three photos are of Firebirds Displays doing their daytime thing. (Yes, they also have a nighttime thing, which might appear later, if the photos aren't terrible)

A couple more after the jump.
