Hot air balloons: Bristol fan saves special balloon shapes from retirement

A 22-year-old, hot-air-balloon enthusiast is on a mission to save "well-loved special shaped" hot air balloons from retirement.

Matt Joyce from Bristol has attended the Bristol International Balloon Fiesta since he was three-years-old.

He recently started buying old special shaped balloons with friends so people could continue to enjoy seeing them fly.

Mr Joyce said it often left him "out of pocket".
