flying!

Last Saturday I was sitting down with a friend eating porridge after a bright and early 10km run. Her boyfriend - who is a hobby pilot asked if I wanted to go flying with them in the afternoon as he had hired a plane and the weather was mint in london. I jumped on the opportunity! After dashing home for a quick shower and wiping up some scones we went out to the airbase by Woking and took off. It was as if every other pilot in London had the same idea and was out that day and maximising the sun! The airspace was supremely busy, but it was a great chance to see the city and country-side from another angle. We flew down to Brighton on the coast and it was cool to have the head set on and listen to all the flying jargon from other air users! No rest as it was out for dinner and wines that night to a little Asian restaurant in Putney with the flatties plus extras. Sunday was not as eventful just catchups with friends and sifting around hammersmith.
