We are off camping tomorrow down to Fairford in Gloucs for the Royal International Air Tattoo. Some of you may remember that we were all excited last year as it was going to be one of the first displays that the Vulcan was making since it had been restored. But unfortuneatly the show was cancelled due to the really bad weather.
Well this year that has been a whole lot better and the downpours that occured during the week prior to the show have not happened this time, so fingers crossed that the forecast they have given for the coming weekend is not too bad.

I can't wait, my stomach is churning with excitement.

See you all when we get back.

Hi Helen,
I'm just back from camping in Somerset - howling gales and rain!!!
My sister and I were in 4 layers eating dinner in the tent, and I slept in 2 layers!
Hopefully that's all passed now and some nice weather comes along for you!

Had a brilliant time, had a few showers on the Thursday and Friday, Saturday was dry but windy and we all got a bit burnt, mainly due to the wind I think. Finally got to see the Vulcan flying at last, it was an amazing sight. Sunday we do the static display and it was a good job we did, as the heavens opened several times during the day and we were drenched. Altogether we had had a fantastic time. Have booked the campsite all ready for next years show.

Glad you had a good time Helen, despite some dodgy weather . Hope you can maybe make it to Chester meet?
