Lead me into the shops...

Clifton Arcade. Shopping centres aren't a new thing; this one was opened in 1878. Quite an odd space, as there's no exit at the far end (where this was taken from) and you have to run the gauntlet again. Nice leading lines though.

Sadly it appears there were no further ascents from the Bristol Balloon Fiesta. Must be hard when you go to all the trouble of gathering forty years worth of hot air balloons together in one space and it doesn't stop raining/gusting. Better luck for the forty first.

And now, if the brief return of normal summer would kindly push off again, I'd rather like some hot and sunny for the impending gathering of the clan. The camper van is packed - over packed probably - and I've only a few jobs tomorrow and it's off into the woods with the druids!
