Woosh... and then the weekend is gone

The Mister and I have had another fab, but very busy weekend. Last night we went to Cal's house for dinner and to help her celebrate her birthday.

Today we went to Duxord Airshow. It was a fab programme but it was absolutely freezing. The last time we went there I was really cold and this morning I considered putting on my thermals under jeans as the wind was really chilly. I wish I had done, as it was cold, cold, cold again. The best bit of the programme for me was seeing a glider, the towing plane and another little plane doing their programme. When the glider was detached from the towing plane it was incredible to see it twisting and turning and flying upside down. It got so close to the ground before landing that I was just open-mouthed watching it. Fabulous stuff.

Also, following on from my musings about Shuttleworth about having an alternative commentary for women, I have decided there I definitely a marketing opportunity here to run a tent for women and children only. They would pay a smallish amount to come in and in the tent there would be comfy sofas, with gossip magazines, books, scrabble, newspapers etc and tea made in teapots, along with yummy cakes. There would be a children's corner with a DVD player and toys. But best of all it would be warm and comfortable and I guess it would be like a ladies creche. I would probably call it the "I'm not that bothered" tent. I think it would be a success!

Ps) I have selected the picture carefully... no planes... just a picture of me wearing my new hat which I acquired through the lady who can acquire things. Marvellous innit?
