"Houston we have a problem! Balloon is down. Repeat. Balloon is down! Man overboard. Mission aborted. Do you read me?"
The high winds of the early hours on Tuesday 9 August, after much banging on my roof and thoughts of the roof taking off like in the movie UP but without the rest of the house, crossed my mind. I did not sleep well. Nor did my neighbour who filmed the balloon in all its glory dancing in the wind. To the right is the end result; the video is not uploading for some reason (too big probably??) so you might have to come back to it! |
