Title: UK- Weston Park Model Aircraft Airshow this weekend
Post by: Flossy on June 13, 2013, 07:56:39 AM

Hi all              :airplane:          :airplane:            :airplane:             :airplane:             :airplane:             :airplane:              :airplane:             :airplane:

Don't know if anyone in UK is planning to go to this at anytime this weekend, but we are going today and camping until Sunday (hopefully if all goes well!)  

This will be our third time there and there is always a really good 'mock WW2 battle' using pyrotechnics as well as the models themselves, which we enjoy watching.  As well as the usual stalls selling all related items, there's also a beer tent - with entertainment each evening.

Weather forecast isn't brilliant but we keep telling ourselves it can't be worse than last year!  At least this time I will be prepared with some new wellies!

Sorry just seen this. The show itself was brilliant, but the weather was terrible!  After a very cold first night camping, we went to a nearby supermarket and bought a cheap duvet for the other 2 nights.  :)

Yes I took quite a few pics which I posted on my Facebook.  I will repost some here a bit later today.
