Unexpected arrival at Jacaranda HQ

We’re used to the idyllic view of Cowdray ruins and the Walled Garden from our window here at Jacaranda HQ, but we were slightly surprised to see this floating past yesterday!

For a moment it looked as though it might be landing on our roof but we were spared that embarrassment by an adept pilot who could navigate his way into what’s left of the Cowdray living room.

It truly was a beautiful spring evening to be floating over the Sussex countryside in a hot air balloon and we hope that whoever had the romantic landing in our front garden fully appreciated all of us gawping at them…
