Know nothing about them, but had 2 Virgin Hot air balloons come over our farm this evening. Put pics up in Picture Gallery. It was fascinating to watch!!

I don't know anything yet, but I have a balloon flight booked for the end of this month - I'm a little apprehensive but looking forward to it too!

All I know wabout them is that they are a damned nuisance when you live at the top of a hill and they fly very low over your horses, knock down your dry stone walls and land in next doors field and p off without offering to pay for the damage. Sorry for the rant but it really wound me up and it was the first one that the big girl had seen. We get them going over reasonably often, and she is terrified because of the first one she saw.

Funny you mentioned this. My horse saw one tonight whilst I was grooming her and just stood staring at it. She must think the world's gone flying mad because she saw a kid on a trampoline the other night and was a bit put out. I'd be terrified of going on one, I'm scared of heights.

You will love it! It's magic, honestly and I am speaking as one who would never set foot in a plane or helicopter, no way, not me! I'd be up in another like a shot, it was fantastic! I do hope you enjoy it too.

Our horses never bother about them even if they're low enough to land close by, they don't even look up, even the foals.

What was it someone wanted to know about them anyway, do we know?!
