Yup, I can hear them from home and am shackled to my desk with too much work...

Anyone who hasn't bought a ticket may well be able to benefit from some of the show from the sidelines.

Nice photos, I really need a better camera.

It was a good day out, both my lad and I enjoyed it. You were correct the racers were pretty quiet and he didn't need the ear protectors but he wore them for the chinook and put them on for the Reds (blink and you'll miss them).
