We made our way in convoy to Hibaldstow, Lincolnshire. Sunny weather all the way. Joanne was taken off to be briefed, we stood watching others fall from the sky with their colourful parachutes. Suddenly black clouds came over head and the parachuting had to stop, so we had our sandwiches and waited for the rain and cloud to clear away.

We will update you as we know details.

Thanks to everyone who supported us by attending our annual Gala Day which took place on Cheviot Street Open Space. Well the weather was not brilliant but we still had crowds of people come down and take a look, many lined the road to watch the parade.

Calidoscopia provided the carnival music, and created a wonderful atmosphere. Followed by St Barnabas Rainb...
