[Romantic Old Bird]

Sadly, this has been postponed for a day due to he weather.

I saw the interview with the american who had made a similar baloon trip alone in 1960.

The thought of jumping out of the baloon into the abyss and then calmly plunging 12 or so miles before pulling on the parachute!!

Insane of course, but so brave. He lived to tell the tale and looked a hale and happy chappie. perhaps you have to do something completely insane to push back the barriers and feel you have really lived.

Now, where are my slippers???
