Mildenhall Oregon Run 26th March 2017

An early morning start for Darren, John and Colin saw us head up to Mildenhall for the Oregon Eagles.

The grapevine told us they would be departing by 1030am, however it would be 1400 local by the time they got themselves sorted.

As we'd heard there were a few technical difficulties with the flight we had time to kill. A good catch up with Mr Tanner and the lure of a Walkers Special soon passed the time.

Only six had departed at 2pm, the other two may have followed but we didn't wait around.

As Nay's camera was out of use he had an attempt at videoing the departures on his phone. I think he needs steadier hands...
