Now for the latest in hot air balloons. This balloon is only two months old, and is making a series of launches throughout the UK. It was launched from a 'secret' location in York a couple of days ago. The location turned out to be Clifton cricket club. It must have passed quite closely over our house, but it was some distance to the east before I saw it, and I managed to get this shot before it disappeared from sight. Sadly the distant view has resulted in a poor quality image, but I thought it worth sharing because of its novelty value.
Grenade is a sports nutrition company. It's website gives its history - "Founded in 2010 by Alan and Juliet Barratt, Grenade®’s mission was simple: to create an iconic weight-loss product and become THE brand within Sports Nutrition. Grenade®’s first product was so effective, a friend described it as explosive, “like a grenade”. This product became Thermo Detonator® and the brand name, Grenade®, was born. Today, Grenade® is available in over 80 countries, with a multi award-winning product range".
I must admit that I find the link between a weapon of destruction and a sports drink rather strange.
Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.
Hopefully the York balloon fiesta will go ahead in 2021, and there will be an opportunity to get shots of some of the wierd and wonderfully shaped balloons there.
