Keep your eyes peeled skywards towards the NE between 1.20 and 1.35 as you might...just might although I think the topology might not be in our favour....and you will see the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight en route to Fairford.

Thanks to Peter and Sarah, a great day out (like last year!).

Highlights for me (in no particular order:

• the students' furniture exhibition: including a dressing table my wife now covets (having seen my pics - oops!) and a three-player chess table that boggles the mind before you even move a pawn. Everything seriously well executed, and some really nice design too,
• Sean Feeney's "Panga" table,
• The new WoodRiver planes, especially the bevel-up smoother and the larger shoulder plane (well all of them really!),
• Expertise and demos of finishing products and techniques - this is a weak area for solitary hobby woodworkers like me, so very helpful.
• Peter's patience in answering endless sharpening questions!,
• The Help-for-Heroes burgers

It was all thoroughly enjoyable, and I'm just as envious of Peter's beautiful location as last time!

Anyone else?
