First day of the Bournemouth Air Festival did not go well.


We had storms and torrential rain this morning. They'd predicted a crappy day and probably no air displays for the first day, but not this.


This is MY BEACH this morning (all photos from news sites; not mine):

I'm following the Air Festival Twitter to see if the dusk air display is going ahead, but they're hoping for the next three days flying displays to go ahead.

Holy crap! I thought the rain in London was rather grim today...

Stay safe, love. <3

Yeah, Peter and I were pretty suprised when we saw the pictures, we hadn't realised how bad it actually was. The latest from the Twitter feed is that there will be flying tonight though! ♥
