Red Arrows over Bristol
I shot this on my iPhone a couple of weeks ago, but help off posting it because of the tragedy of last weekend. But the more I thought about it, the more I realised that these guys work very hard to show their skill, and to entertain. And that Sunday they did both, both for the people at the Balloon Fiesta, and for people all over southern Bristol who could see their display. And death shouldn't prevent us celebrating the skills of life.

Ah, Princess...
Ah, Princess from Battle of the Planets. One of my earliest crushes before (a) I knew what a crush was and (b) realised that it was a bit weird having a crush on a cartoon character.
Some great posters from classic kids' stuff on that site…

Sharing your photos with posterity #1

Intriguing idea. I have a whole bunch of family photos - probably three generations worth - to scan and share. This looks like one place to start.
Saturday's fine for Shoreham flying
Despite the dire warnings of rain and general unpleasantness, today dawned bright and fine in Shoreham-by-Sea, which must have been a great relief to the organisers of the airshow. Sadly, we were too busy to attend this year, but we were treated to a free show as we walked from the Beach over to the town this afternoon:

Sorry for the very amateur hour footage. Pointing a small caera at the sky and getting decent results is harder than I imagined… My respect for my FlightGlobal colleagues goes up.
A small pleasure of Lion
Much like Circles in Google+, I'm having slightly too much fun with creating names for folders in Lion's launchpad app
