Old Grizzly...
Apparently this is the first time in 16 years of the event in Bristol
that there wasnt one mass Balloon Ascent possible because of the high
winds and it was a pity because its reported that 137 entries had been
made from all over Europe. It was a pity for all concerned as its quite
a spectacle usually :(

noreen...
I can imagine it would have been Len pity !! but it was pretty impressive
from your piccs ;-))))

Old Grizzly...
That was with just 40 balloons apparently just imagine if all of them
(137) had flown :)


jackie...
Oh! that was a shame Len, is it a once a year thing?

Old Grizzly...
Yes Jackie just once a year :(


BunnyHare...
That's a shame. I expect it is quite a sight with that many taking off
all at once.
I'll be quite happy on Saturday if just one gets off the ground
next
