Even more awesome than awesome!!

Well it looked like another wet wasted journey, the rain ran down the Dolgellau "Little chef" windows and we had to force ourselves to head off to Corris, cameras in our bags on our backs when a very early Herc came around the valley and lifted the spirit, despite not getting a shot of it.
In place, cameras ready, the sun broke through....... and then all hell broke loose, a day to "out-awesome" all those great days that have gone before, even more remarkable knowing Jamie Smith the "fast jet scarecrow" was round on "Bluebell" hill.
I missed the GR4 pair as I was just packed for the move across to Cad west, this time I wasn't that bothered!!!
A big thanks to Garry, Graham, Martin and all the others on Cad (afternoon), Jamie for the "heads-up" phone calls.
Most of all a very big thankyou to all the aircrews, but especially the Strike Eagle crews who collectively turned a bunch grown men into excited schoolboys for a few hours, what a fantastic day.
