Boys are back

The Brits are back. No idea how they've done as soaringspot isn't working on my phone, but you can check there for the provisionals.

It's international evening tonight which should be a good laugh, although the Americans have tequila so I'm kinda scared about how this is gonna go

Pictures from today

Some picture from the last few days off my camera.

Charlie finishing yesterday. A solid 4th in his first international comp day. Who's a good boy!!

 Couldn't help myself... Sorry Benny

Picture time

Finally whipped out the camera so have a few pictures to update from the grid today. Ali will put some more up in a bit as he has taken more and we aren't co-ordinated enough to put them up in the same post

I've out-hacked Ali

Ali's buckled and gone to bed, but I'm still standing. This is mainly due to the fact that the girl working the bar is a solid 9 (this figure would be a lot lower if I hadn't drank / hadn't been on an airfield with only men for 4 days)

I think everyone's feeling the effects of the last few nights as it's very quiet tonight. I spent the whole day calling the Aussie who's left a bitch as she hadn't left me her pass (we're on a mission to get a security pass from every team) only to find she!d left it in literally the most obvious place ever. If I wasnt borderline retatded, I wouldn't have had to call her a "flamin' galah" multiple times

Anyway, everyone thinks they'll be flying tomorrow so I'm looking forward to seeing the boys get a 1,2,3 in each class. Anything worse and ill pretend I don't know them

Quiet night is going badly

So the quiet night of watching films has not gone to plan. Whilst its quieter than the others, I'm currently in the bar half way through my 6th beer and more awake than I have been all day
