Hi, Mike

I was also at this balloon festival on the Sunday morning and watched as the Elastoplast balloon lifted off. Unfortunately, there was insufficient lift in the envelope and the balloon hit the water in the moat. I took a number of pix with my Nikon digital, one especially is very pleasing. It has been entered in a competition with the caption
"OUCH! (as on balloon) A sticky moment for the Elastoplast balloon as it hits the moat at the start of the Leeds Castle balloon festival!!!!"

If you would like to see it, please let me know.

Your pix are extremely good.

Best wishes
