Red Bull Air Race 2008 - London
|
|
|
0000 hrs
This was somewhat an aborted visit when I hosted this event a couple of years ago when it was being held at Longleat. It promised to be a great day out - a minibus packed full of my friends ready to see some awesome aerobatics, but instead we saw some awesome queues and cloud cover ;-( But hey, this year it's being held in London over the Thames with the O2 building as a backdrop in what promises to be a fun-packed, adrenalin-fuelled experience. Let me know if you're interested as tickets sell out fast.

Located in the heart of Herefordshire, it is surrounded by scenic countryside, interspersed with a number of small Tudor villages.

Tents are accommodated for with hot & cold water washing up facilities and use of the new shower & loo block.
Take a five minute walk to the village pub and enjoy home-cooked meals, washed down with a gin and tonic or a glass of ale, or enjoy a game of bowls on the green by the church. The villagers are very friendly, and love to stop and chat.
The area offers a variety of attractions; the unspoilt countryside, Hereford cathedral, housing many treasures, the world-famous Mappa Mundi, Leominster with its olde world shops and market place, and the black and white villages of Kingsland, Weobley, Pembridge, Eardisley, Dilwyn and Lyonshall
