      We've got permission to fly it 14 times a year so you will see it again, because it was our first flight we had a few teethingproblems, its sorted now so youwill see the writing on both sides next time. The only problem we have now is funds to fly it regularly, we have enough for two more and I will throw paypal on here if anyone would like to donate, 2 deffo flights will be the Hillsborough memorial Day and the game at home t West Ham afterwards, Sunderland is live so we would want that day also.

      The first canisters of helium was £65 but he let us have the old price, its gone up now to £80 maybe £85, might have to shop around, we have time to try ad do that.

      he dates we can potentially fly it are:
      Sunday, 28 March 2010 - Liverpool v Sunderland, 16:00
      Sunday, 11 April 2010 - Liverpool v Fulham, 15:00
      Thursday, 15 April 2010 - Hillsborough anniversary
      Saturday, 17 April 2010 - Liverpool v West Ham, 15:00
      Saturday, 1 May 2010 - Liverpool v Chelsea, 15:00

      As things stand, there's enough in the kitty to cover the next flight's helium. Beyond that though, we're short. We have roughly half what we need for the next but one flight, so if you want to see it up at more than one of these, do dig deep.

      As some of you know, we're going to need a new, lighter main rope, and to help keep it steady in the air, we could do with two extra lines, one at each end of the land we've got reserved to fly it (scousejeff's suggestion, and an excellent one). I'll cover the cost of these myself, so for now it's the cost of helium we're looking for.

      SOS are using it for the Chelsea game, so it will be up above the Kop Sunday, don't know what they intend to put on it though.
