We have received comments from a number of people in the village that the Virgin Hot Air Balloon, that flies from Longstanton, passed very low over the village at about 7.20 am on Saturday morning 8th August. We have e-mailed the company http://www.virginballoonflights.co.uk asking if there was some sort of incident here.
The balloon is a wonderful colourful addition to the local skies – did anyone get any pictures on Saturday morning? The one below shows the balloon climbing away from the village behind the Church.

Well done whoever got the picture of the balloon climbing into the sky. Somebody is up earlier than me! Should keep a camera handy by the bed! So glad it made it. Dangerously low over our bungalow garden at top of High Street and I wasn’t prepared for early morning visitors!
