I finally did it! Two and a half years ago my husband bought me a voucher for a balloon flight and since then I've tried and tried to use it. I am their record breaker as 32 times my flight has been cancelled due to bad weather!!! I tried various locations all reasonably near home but it was always windy or raining or something! Friends were beginning to ask when my next flight was booked so they could avoid the date for holidays! This afternoon it finally happened!!! Better still there was a spare place so my husband came too. We took off from the centre of Bath in glorious sunshine and flew over the city. It was lovely and it was only cold when we landed an hour or so later and while we were helping to pack up the balloon. If you have the chance to do it I can really recommend a balloon flight........it is fun and isn't frightening. Sue :))))
