Hershey Bob contemplates flying his own kite
after seeing Ant & Kath's para-bear "Wilbur" online.

Hershey Bob's got the helmet and goggles and we've got the lifting kite...
need to make a parachute and maybe a tiny buggy too...

To make a practice parachute Choccy did the following:
obtained information from The Ted Berets website
weighed Hershey Bob
estimated the parachute diameter
calculated the gore dimensions
made a gore template
chose some colourful paper

just to see if the dimensions seem about right,
can't wait to try it with the correct materials.

Choccy tries out Hershey Bob's new minisled
at Coventry kite festival, (packed wasn't it)!
