Perrywoods Nursery - Sunday 1st April 07
It was a lovely bright sunny day with a fair amount of wind. We arrived about midday and Stan and Vera, Maurice and Glenda were already there enjoying Perrywoods gastronomic delights. Sandra and Ernie had also arrived, it was lovely to see Sandra as she had not been too well recently. We wish you well Sandra and hope you get better very soon. Up went the Banner....EKG had arrived.
Other members to arrive were Tony, David with his five Stack, Mark, Norman and Bob but to mention just a few.
Courtney flew a two line Stunt kite, Ernie various Delta’s, Maurice a Hexagon kite with Fuzzy tail and Stan a classic Box kite. There were various other kites in the sky including a Parafoil with blue legs (yes, blue legs!). I am not quite sure who was flying that...come on own up!
Our President was busy flying a two Stack, Delta stunt kite and trying to show Courtney how it’s done properly.
Sandra had bought Ernie a lovely Delta kite for his Birthday but there was a little accident with the wind and oooops a spar was broken. Well you’re not getting another one said Sandra!
The ladies went off for afternoon tea, cake and plants while the men discussed flying techniques and various other kite related issues. Perrywoods is one of the EKG flying venues that keeps everyone happy!
The afternoon finished on a funny note! The AA van came to rescue a car that had broken down and then got stuck in the mud himself and had to be towed out but...The Land Rover that towed him out only took him so far as he thought he was okay. The Land Rover drove away and the AA man got stuck again and had to be rescued by a member of staff at Perrywoods. The poor AA man was embarrassed so we pretended not to look (see below photo)..
I think everyone enjoyed April Fools Day at Perrywoods!
