A drones eye view of last night's fire in Speedwell Bristol. The fire is now under control and some roads have reopened, but this is still a live operation. Please be patient & monitor @ASPolice & @AvonFireRescue for updates.

Eight days and some 1000 km later, I made it to the 2018 Icarus Trophy finish line. Doing it in style landing minutes before darkness, short of the finish post and proudly in last place. Great job Mr Andy Place.
