Well just got back home, what a great day, fantastic weather, great company and some great flying, Thanks to Marlene for the scoring and my egg and bacon roll when I arrived, Teresa for my cups of tea and of course Cliff for running it. 

Lets hope this a taste of things to come for the rest of the year, fantastic day well worth the trip.
