Just to keep you all informed, I've done a programme and it's been vetted by Guv and when Chris has put the rubber stamp on it, I'll post it up here so you all know whats going on.
Also I have booked the airfield for us so we have the use of their facilities.
Oll, when I've heard back from Whizz, I'll need to speak to you regarding one of the lessons were teaching

Don't worry about a tent - there's a group of hardcores (read idiots) that always sleep outside. We inevitable get cold, but we drink enough to make the pain go away.
By the by, do you smoke eddie?

usually we drink more beer and light up a cigarette or three... or the pub if it's open of course. Or you just climb on top of someone you know quite well, and kick them out of their tent
