This balloon was lent to friends of the collection "steve and Jonathan Harris" for the inflation day in Pidley in 2010.  Following the inflation day, Martin and Sandy where informed that the owner no longer wanted the balloon and would destroy her unless we could find a new home.  A few telephone conversations and a visit to Oxford and she is now in safe keeping in the North West England for preservation with the Balloon Retirement Home.

The balloon will be used for inflation days to ensure that 'she' can continue to be enjoyed for years to come.
