I’m just back from spending a few days in Berlin with my son, Simon, what a laugh, we laughed so much but mainly at our own jokes… well somebody has too, he he. Simon was there competing in his Hyrox challenge’s that he takes part in all over the world and you will be pleased to know he beat his own personal best by over two minutes, so that was a bonus as well. We also did a little sight seeing and saw loads of interesting things. I’m sure we will post a few pictures and video’s sometime soon.
Just over three weeks to go before the big one… yes, Mr Patrick Van de Ven will be over in the UK on the 23rd and 24th June in Birmingham with a two day balloon workshop, We are down to the last four spaces being available with a maximum of just 35 people attending to make the event small and intimate so that Patrick and I have time for everyone.
If you’d like to book then this is the link, Patrick Van de Ven.
All the pictures are up that I took from the Punch-Up festival that I attended earlier in the month in Birmingham,
Miraiker’s Punch-Up.
I have also just posted the July design for my tutorial page on Facebook which is a Dolphin, over on “A Balloon Club 2026”
We do ask for a small donation to view the page for the full year… the cost is not monthly but for the full year,
A Balloon Club 2026.
Off to find the random picture of the week but going with a bird design I made a few days back that has had loads of likes on social media, funny how that all works with some designs being a hit and some not getting many views or comments.
