    The Bray Airshow

    This flew over my house earlier, along with a few other less interesting things.

    They're still passing overhead now (I'm on the route from Bray to Weston)

    I saw a few of those around today, though they are nothing compared to the show I saw in Croke Park today. Galway 5 - 18 Kilkenny 4 - 18.

    The Bray Air show. as a resident i was looking forward to it. But my unprofessional conclusion:

    Biggest waste of 2 hours of my life ever.

    Tesco was more exciting.

    You should have gone to Croke Park Johnny. It was a classic match, so it certainly wouldn't have been a waste of time.

    only good thing about the airshow today was that the darts were running on the south half of the dart line

    Was fairly boring..

    *Hey look, that plane just did a loop da loop......ok, we'll just stand here for 5 mins now and wait for it to come back for another 30 seconds.....*

    Not as bad as when the tour de france came through bray.

    *Here they come....Whoohoo, go on, ya.....15 seconds later... right then, should we go home now?*

    What did you expect?

    I thought both the Royal Netherlands Air Force did a very good foramtion flying. In fact our own Air Corp, put on a competent show - of virtually everything they own.

    The Spitfire was my highlight
