Up, Up and Away - into the bright blue yonder

 Bit of a change for us tonight, the playing fields were full of young footballers, sun shining, when the Alba balloon man and the Edinburgh University team arrived with their wonderful hot air balloons.   pleasant surprise for me when I spotted David, my friend and his wife who had waited weeks for the weather to clear for this flight.     Air traffic control at Edinburgh Airport cleared them and away they went heading for a landing somewhere over near Heriot, Borders Region,   a lovely night for a quiet flight.
