RedBull Air race

Went along to the qualifying round in London today. Quite a spectacle! Took a few pics, well, 769 actually!

I invited Matt, but he was busy with Church work!

The Brit dude who was favourite, topped the qualifying round with ease.

Took a boat load of freinds (16) to watch from the water, (cheap skates) but PLA and Police made us as welcome as a verruca on your penis. Finally managed to squeeze in the River Lee much to their protests, but would not recomend in the future .
