Mini I.A. Meet at RAF Coningsby [Merged Topic]

Postby Xplumberlives » Thu Jul 30, 2009 8:54 am

Just wondering if anybody fancies a trip out to RAF Coningsby on Thursday the 6th of August to see some of the Typhoons?

Plan to meet up at 10:30 at whichever end of the runway is busiest on the day!

:( I can't make it that day - I've got Cameron and Savannah in a holiday playscheme one day a week during the hols just to give them a change of scenery/something different to do/get them out of my hair/let them get rid of excess energy somewhere else/mess up someone else's area and let someone else clear up after them for a day..... :ymdevil:

I won't venture far from the area while they're somewhere like this in case I'm needed for them.

Enjoy! all who are going xx
