Gareth - pre-booked family arrangements have taken over the rest of June. We hope to be back on a flying field at Appeal for Alfie in July.
(Have received summons from Sandringham and tickets for Royal Norfolk Show)

The wind, yes we had wind was a bit fickle at times. A few photos on Flickr . www.flickr.com/photos/len_in_kent/Len. A bit fickle!! it was gusting on Saturday, blowing a real North Easterly until Sun came out mid afternoon then it was still a strong wind. Managed to put one over fence blocking off the groundworks and one into bushes ( prickly stuff). Still got both back with help from the Archie and family and Keith from the Old Gits. I am awaiting an update on the works which are to the river bank, but as it was on Saturday , all we may possibly lose for August event is the ground where KKF park by the gate. |

As I had missed dear Ron Dell on Saturday, I made up my mind on Sunday morning to go over to Teston in the hope that he would be coming again to the field. Arrived around 11.30. Keith and Alan from the Old Gits were already set up, along with Archie and Chloe Daniels, Peter Hulcoop, Andrew and Sandra from BKF, and Richard and his other half. The wind was even stronger to-day so as the war wounds were playing up a bit decided to do KKF thing sit in chair and enjoy the atmosphere. Ron and his partner/carer arrived just after midday, which was really good to see him. He is definitely not a well man, but still had his wry humour and Tina hoped that being at Teston would help to lift his spirits. He has booked the hotel for the August event.
Dave C and Beverley were were there for a little while, but the rest of the troops mus have known in advance the weather situation, as it was bitterly cold and every-one put on whatever layers of clothing on they had brought with them except for Peter H who bravely wore the summer outfit of shorts and sandals. Nice blue colour legs you have Peter. Difficult day for kites.
Just hope the weather has not had a bad effect on Ron's health as he was out in the cold for about 4 hours, well wrapped up.
