Colin already had a lifter kite up with Barney the bear and his rainbow spinner and It didn&#8217;t take long for me to join him with\u00a0my 81 sled. As there was a steady 10mph wind\u00a0it was a perfect morning for the trio of Aliens which looked lovely in the sunshine. With Colin&#8217;s\u00a0flowtail\u00a0stack\u00a0and the 4 kite arches making a colourful tunnel \u00a0we were starting to get some kites in the sky. Pete added to it\u00a0with\u00a0the colourful Lobster. Whilst we getting the kites in the sky the Kite workshop was in full swing and they had a steady stream of children decorating their kites all morning.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-338\" src=\"http:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show24.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately by lunch time the sky had clouded over a bit but the sun kept trying to break through. The cloud had brought with it a freshening 15mph wind which the aliens weren&#8217;t so keen on, so they were replaced by the dragons. As we had plenty of room I put up a second lifter and put up the three seahorses which added more colour to the sky. From the main arena it looked an impressive display and probably the best we have managed to put on at the 5 Parishes Show.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-337\" src=\"http:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.eastangliankiteflyers.org.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/5-Parishes-Show29.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Throughout the afternoon the kite workshop was busy as ever and it was great to see all the children enjoying flying the kites that they had decorated.
