Oh me oh my!...
It looked like a giant bird in the sky but, my gosh, you wouldn't want it coming down on your roof would you?! This hot air balloon stopped me in my tracks cycling home from work last week. It looked like it was about to make an emergency landing on the girls grammar school fields, at the top of Deakin Leas, but I believe it went on to land safely in the Sportground Park. It made quite an exciting end to my day though and I was able to whip out my trusty Sony Eriksson camera phone to capture this shot for you....

Its a property developer looking for gardens to build in in Deakin leas
My wife and I went up in one of these yesterday. We took off from a field near Wadhurst, and (despite the name on the balloon) went all the way...... to Ticehurst. Got involved in the inflation and deflation at start and finish. We were in the air for an hour. I can't get over how stock still it is in the basket. As if standing on a solid floor at home. Not a single sway, judder, or anything. At 4000ft we could see essex and french coasts.
Super trip.
