Welcome

Welcome to our website

Flying kites is our main hobby along with photography (see our links in the footer of this page).  We started flying kites a number of years ago when we came across the Fylde Kite Festival at St Annes a couple of miles away from where we lived at the time in Blackpool.  We bought a dual line kite from one of the traders not realising this was the start of something that would take over a big part of our lives.

We’ve attended kite festivals throughout the year across the length of breadth of the UK and beyond into Europe when we could.  More recently we’ve enjoyed flying with close friends on the Lincolnshire coast which is so enjoyable and relaxing.  It’s always lovely when people come up to us to say we’ve put a smile on their face and how fantastic the kites look.

Our passion is for all things kites, but in the main we fly inflatable display kites.  Big ones when we can – our largest kites is 30 metres long and 15 metres wide!.  We’ve included a gallery of the contents of our Kite Bag on the website.  We’ve even been known to make the odd kite or two in the past including Desmond, a 5 metre long inflatable dinosaur and an 8 metre Where’s Wally!

Please enjoy our website.  We’ve combined our kiting life with our love for photography so you’ll see plenty of pictures in our Festival Reports section from the many festivals and fly-ins we’ve attended over the years.  In fact in this section we’ve now gone past showing 10,000 images from over 200 events.  We know these galleries are popular with fellow kiters so keep an eye on the What’s New page to see when a new event gallery has been added.  As well as the photos you’ll find some of our videos from events we’ve attended on Sarah’s Youtube Channel.

Happy viewing.
