I'll have to get some of mine up.

I took my almost 4yr old, who got fed up shortly after the Chinook, so rather than fighting a losing battle, we left early.

We saw most of the Red Arrows display from the window of the train as it was pulling out of Bournemouth station anyway, and we only had 2 other people in a whole first class carriage all the way back to Woking, so it seems it was a bit of a good decision! hehe

I was in 1st too, along with about 50 other people - the train was just too overcrowded. Luckily, I only had a 15 minute journey! I just had to hang on for the Typhoon, which was well worth the crowded train - maybe not for 4 year olds though, it was pretty loud!

I was less fussed about the Typhoon, having already seen it at Goodwood and Yeovilton this year. smile

Anyway, I wasn't too pleased with my shots. The ones below are pretty much the best of a mediocre bunch.
