The organisers put on a party last night in the hangar. The bar was set up for us to serve ourselves, so it was funny watching Czechs and Lithuanians getting to grips with an English beer pump - lots of froth to begin with. It started off quite quietly, a few videos on the TV and a big Jenga in the corner.
Then the music was turned up with the event organiser Rob acting as DJ. These parties are aimed at bringing together the teams who otherwise might not socialise between their different tented villages. The atmosphere was excellent with a lot of old friends getting together, as well as new ones being made.
Most of the competitors went to bed early which left the assistants and visitors to start the dancing. Chief Marshal Jeremy's wife Lorraine was jigging away with Dawn Dewhurst, being egged on by DJ Rob... who seemed to be enjoying himself too.
It was over by midnight, though the pilots were already long asleep, ready for Tuesday's flying - an economy task, trying to fly as big a triangle as possible. Let's hope Grimwood gets some points back... he's currently behind Paul Welsh!
