There was a knock on our door yesterday at 10.10am.....

It was the postman ......

He handed me a box ........

And when I opened it ........

guess what it was ..........

Our little xmarks Airship has landed in little o'l Wales with the log book ....
Robert (R Kilts) has passed it on to me for it to have a few Welsh adventures.
There are several crusades happing over the next 10 days so it will be appearing in the pics .... tomorrow we are doing a gig in the church behind our cottage to celebrate their 900th year ... we have called the concert, Christmas Songs, Advent Carols & Nursery Rhymes. Our little Airship will be there. In the meantime, our fiddle player called over yesterday so we wasted not a moment in putting the little Airship to work .... and then with our Christmas candles ...

And finally, Robert also enclosed an absolutely beautiful sporran strap for me as a gift. I cannot thank him enough for it .. so once again Robert .. THANKYOU VERY MUCH.

So for now, keep watching the pics section cause our little Airship is gonna turn up in lots of little Welsh places ... (we going to The Red Cow on Sat too ... but I have'nt told the Airship that yet)

Woo hoo, Derek. It had been rumoured that the Saltire was on her way across the Atlantic and her next port of call would be somewhere in Europe. Keep us posted with pics of the events which the Saltire gets to in the coming days.

Great to see the Saltire in Wales!

Would love to have popped into the Red Cow to see it but alas am helping out at the Santa steam weekend on the Pontypool and Blaenafon railway.

Please explain the satire? Where did it originate?

Wow, now it's across the pond. May it should keep going east to go west.

Wonderful to see the wee ship safely at it's latest destination. I look forward to her continuing mission.
