Farway Common

So nice to be back at Farway Common for the first time this year.

Catching up with dear friend and looking thought the logbook offers some perspective, I see my first flight here was on 06-00-2003, just over 9 years ago.

A lot had change, with more change on the Horizon.

Plan C! - Scillys are off...

Sadly the Isles of Scilly plan is now now officially off. It rained all last night, and the cloud is still on the deck with then local Oriographic still in play. The choices are to stay at the airfield and hope or "holiday". Ron the Engineer from Farway offers us a lift to the local bus route which takes us to Sidbury, where a double decker takes us and a bus load of bus passes to Sidmouth.

We visit the best pasty shop in then world, stroll the town and sleep in the shelters on then prominard. Half awake Half asleep I catch every passer by's conversations, interesting 80% are about recolation of the past and people and places folks have been, the other 20% are about other people. I wonder do my conversations split in then same way?

Bus home , Jon and I jump off for a visit to Liddle, and then try a hitch home...

Thinking Sunday will take us to Newquay...

Good bad forecast

It's wet the cloud is on the deck and so will we be today, the good
news is that it's so bad we don't have to wait in the hope it will
change so it's a walk to Sidbury, and bus to Sidmouth today.

We now need a plan b as Scillys airport is shut on Sundays.
