    Little Aiships latest adventures

    The airship has been extremely busy the past 4 days.
    Thurs eve and we helped put up a very large Christmas tree in the church


    The Airship got really stuck in as you can see




    Then we went over the church hall to start preparing for our monthly folk club ... the airship wasted no time again and took charge of the proceedings




    Then the airship wanted to be silly

    Then Trefor said tara to everyone before he set off home

    An hour and a half later we reached our destination ... the market town of Brecon




    We were going to the Christmas Market which also coincided with The Farmers Market ... so we had a look around a few little shops and then went and had lunch in a little cosy place I know .... the airship has adapted to life in Wales splendily.. and was first to get a round in


    Which we duly drankl


    These people were there and were very chuffed I had a Cilt on. Their son is hiring a cilt etc from the welsh tartan centre later next year for a wedding ....

    It was great to meet the little airship and become part of its travels!

    Here are one or two pics I took.

    The airship reading the story of the man and too much whisky.



    I don't think I have see another photo of the reverse and the inscription thereon so here it is.



    And finally the airship admiring the Braveheart tartan at close quarters.

    Getting fed up? No no no, Derek you have raised the bar, all further and even past adventures will be measured by the wee airship's time spent in Wales. Keep the adventures coming.
