I was hoping we were going to enjoy this show, we set off this morning knowing it was going to cost £25 to get in for 2 adults and a child. So we set off early to make the most of it and we did!, we had a great day. If anyone was contemplating going this year but didn’t, make sure you go next year. The weather probably had something to do with it aswell as it was sunny all day, I currently look like a new form of lobster that was wearing goggles in the sunshine!. But never mind there was a fair, stalls, rides and shows to keep us occupied and we made sure we viewed everything.
The shows consisted of:
Big Pete – Monster Event Display Team with a Wheelying Fire Engine!!
Xtreme Trials Display Team showing what you can do with a trials bike.
UKFMX – Freestyle MX Team a brilliant display of airborne tricks on Motor X bikes.
The Purple Helmets er……..best see their site for the full info!
Titan Robot man or machine great fun to see in action.

This was the annual Hot Air Balloon event here in sunny Burnley. We only really went down to view the Night glow part of the 2 day show so I can’t comment on all of it. I must say this years event was a bit of a let down for me as there was no Firework display to co-ordinate with the balloons and Music, instead we had lasers. Now I liked some of the laser effects but I’m a big kid for fireworks!, so I hope this is rectified for next year. The Night glow was cut short on this occassion as it started to rain again! and the balloons don’t like getting wet so it all ended a bit sudden. Below are a few pics I took whilst there:

Well today was the annual open day at the Rocket Centre Motorcycle dealership in Blackburn, after I managed to park up my car (it was packed!) my phone went flat and I had forgotten my camera so here are a few pictures taken on my wife’s phone:
