For those of you that know me on FB, then you may have seen these before. For those that haven't, well, a couple of years ago I was lucky enough to be in a very special formation (no, I didn't have a Jeremy Clarkson smug face for a month later...much!). Smiley

Apologies for picture quality (particularly the first - I just like the composition of that one), as they were taken without too much paying attention to the camera, and on a compact.

I might share a few more when time allows. Smiley
