  @jpmens but likely not as hellish as LBA (aka Yeadon Aerodrome - slightly refurbished from the grass airstrip and inability to use it if the wind was in the wrong direction days of the 1940s) especially on a Saturday afternoon

  It's been a great weekend in Machynllyth for their comedy festival but now I'm peopled out and going to sit in an Airbnb garden for a bit listening to a stream (technically I have another show booked but decided in favour of an ice cream and walking back in daylight instead)

  @girlonthenet@mastodon.social RevK @revk@toot.me.uk used to have a GPS logger in his collection of available circuit boards - not sure if it could send live positioning data or whether it was better suited for saving your tracks to memory until you download it. In any case can't see it on his store right now.
