I was awake (just) as it is light here well before 5am, when an aircraft took of with a really snarly propellor, then seemed to come back and beat the place up just for fun!! Now, I am sure you all know that I kinda like planes, but seriously!!!!! 6ish in the morning is a little early to be ripping around an airport at low level, sending sonic shock waves through the air such that NOBODY will miss the fact that you are a hotshot pilot!!! anyway, thoughts to that effect bounced around my only just getting rebooted brain.
Ali is pretending she hasn't heard anything (Tui ad right there!!) so getting out of bed to see what all the fuss is about seemed like a good idea, plus, who knows, there might be a bear down near the river!
A quiet sneak out of the room, then a short walk around the hangars, checking out the bears at the river (not) and here comes the noisy plane.. towing the above mentioned banner.. which get's dropped close by leaving the pilot to zip low level around the airfield to land,, quietly, this time.
Whilst looking for beavers and bears, two hot air balloons got my attention in the distance, seemingly stationary in the sky a few miles away, and on chatting with the banner towing pilot I can tell you that there was the couple, one of course who had arranged for the "Wll you Marry me" banner. Apparently the whole event has been filmed for some TV production. I wonder if she (or possibly "he") said yes.
