OK

2XHawks at southend new design scheme 1 of them.
2xtucanos at Southend

3xtornados at manston

practice along seafront from 11am to 5pm friday. hawk slot 3pm thats all i know. my guess is tucano will go up and gr4s might play to. all subject to weather etc

other stuff due in are RN Lynx , merlin. they normally play as well
what we have here is a complete lack of respect for the law !

Traffic heads up: A127 just after Progress Road has emergency road works after a sewer collapsed a couple of hours ago, it is hoped that repairs will be completed over night.
