Of course it is.

Butser's closest when I'm back home


Where are you? Perhaps I could pick you up on my way out?

I'll be back home in Fleet (GU52) for christmas and a lift would be much appreciated if it's not too far out of your way.

Also, especially for those who've not been before, no parking on the grass verges.

So don't park on the road on the map, park on the road on the photo!

(Still no idea whether I'll be there)

Sorry guys things haven't turned in my favour for this one... Might have a fly but unfortunately can't make it to Epsom. Wind looks nice though, have a good one!

Can't make this either as my presence is required in Cheshire on Monday. We'll be seeing in the new year by the seaside in Sussex (a variation on the arrangements that I thought might allow me to be on Epsom Downs tomorrow) but although I'll try to smuggle some kites into the car, I probably won't get to use them.
