Came across this while downloading photos from my wife's camera. My son took it when we were at Belfast City last December.

Was it raining? For some reason, a lot of spotter's often keep their hood up when they're spotting, something I have a tendancy to do myself for no apparent reason.

I don't think it was raining, if I recall correctly it was windy. I take it that's the pub at MAN?

Remember Portrush 2008 the glorious weather?? One of my girls snapped this, now that's embarrassing!!  I had had a good meal, some wine and beer on the Saturday night. Sunday morning and while waiting for the action to start I fell asleep on top of Blackrocks. However like any good spotter the approaching sound of a Merlin and Lynx duo soon had me fully alert.
