Default Up up and away - my parents' balloon trip

Yesterday, but no prizes for guessing the deliberate mistake!

Apparently Virgin balloons are nicking lots of the other lots business. Shame really, cos when you're in a virgin balloon it's one big ad - even this one had benners for a paper on it.

I would be terrified of doing something like that but I can see how it would appeal to a lot of people. If I could get the same views without being in a basket high up in the air with only wicker and a balloon to stop me falling I'd consider it though

No propellor? How odd!

They must have taken some really good photos, the visibility looks good. How long were they up for?
