I'm sure some will, however, I took these photos so there's no point in them being stuck on my computer - I may aswell let people see as many as I am happy with!

Thanks guys. Taking me a long time to process these, but here's another bunch. One last bunch after this.

67. Thank goodness this ended alright! Minutes later he was red carded.

What happened?

He went into low cloud, performed a circuit and then pulled vertical into a cloud inverting through it and came back out heading towards ground before pulling up over Rhymes Farm.
