Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Guess it's about time for me to remind those of you who are interested, that the next air show at Duxford will be taking place on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th of September. It promises to be a half decent day out, because although they aren't letting any Harriers play ☹️ the Red Arrows, 2 Tornados, Spitfires, Hurricane, Sally B, Venom, Gladiator, Mustang and loads more... The full list can be seen here Look forward to seeing some of you there....as usual I will be standing in the field just off the centre line of the runway 😬 laughing at unsuspecting people as the Tornados fly over 😬 Rach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La vache espagnole Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 So that's a shedders' meet, a shedders' t-shirt and a shedders' curry all proposed within moments of each other ❗ I may even be up for some of these... Shedders' pizza and shedders' dessert to follow 🤔 M 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 Mister Toad, This will actually be the third or so bikeshed event...the first and best was the trip to Towcester...we really should sort out another one - maybe a bit further north this time.

dave hard Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 hmm weekends in September are looking crowded already. I'll have to check. I know I'm on a course the week before, not sure what happens after that Maybe I should start writing down appointments. oh and I fully endorse the idea of 'shedders activities north of Birmingham. I know it's scary for you lot who lurk near Nodnol but I managed to survive being exiled Caterham 21 VHPD - one of the few Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 Dave, It'd be really good to see you...maybe we can even persuade Craig to venture away from his vacuum cleaner this time as well 😬 OK, OK - how about I plan something for the end of September/beginning of November then...we can guarantee it will rain, but who cares...

ewenm Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 As it happens I need to be at Heathrow sometime on Saturday 6th and that's halfway from Bath to Cambridge (ish ) so could come up afterwards... Any chance of a floor to crash on for the Saturday night 🤔 69500 miles and counting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 Ewen, Not cheeky at all...would be good to meet you and you are more than welcome to some floor space, or maybe even a bed if you are lucky 😬 Rach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewenm Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 I'll find out what time I need to be at Heathrow and see if it works Are you going both days 🤔 69500 miles and counting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 OK - sounds like a good plan. Oh yes - I still have hopes that there will be Harriers there...if I don't go, then I might miss them 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewenm Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Murphy's law applies in this situation If you don't go, there will definitely be Harriers there 69500 miles and counting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 Exactly, which is why I will plan to be there both days - even if the Harrier isn't there...Tornados are OK and the Red Arrows are mildly diverting 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewenm Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 do you actually go into the Duxford museum or hang(er) out in a field on the other side of the M11 🤔 Hopefully no misjudged aerobatics this time ☹️ 69600 miles and counting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael Posted August 27, 2003 Author Share Posted August 27, 2003 Last time the plan was to go into the museum on the Sunday and just watch from outside on the Saturday...after the misjudgement on Saturday we decided that we didn't really want to go in, so just stayed in the field... Oh and if you do want to go in, a ticket costs £22.50 - as we have missed the deadline for advanced sales... Rach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La vache espagnole Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Ah ❗ I've just realised I have to be in Bishops Stortford at 3pm on 6 September. Which is 80 miles from home but a mere 20 from Duxford... So I promise to be there (barring unforseen calamities). That's put a 😬 on my face once more, after concentrating on work was beginning to dilute it. And my facial muscles thought they could finally relax...
