A quick update. Last Saturday we a paid visit to the New Century Hall in Manchester to see IST IST, a local band who are slowly but surely attracting bigger audiences. We first saw them a couple of years ago supporting the Mission, then last year at the Ritz now the New Century Hall, a pretty decent...

In September we had a jaunt around some museums in Germany. First the Deutsches Museum in Munich. A great museum , not just for aircaft either. All exhibits beautifully laid out.

Oh dear. UKAR in sense of humour failure by the usual suspects and showing off their amazing ability to research stuff on the internet in an effort to look knowledgable... Frankly I don't know why they've used a 70 year old serial block - it's irritating but not the end of the world as some have ass...

Who on earth decided to give them serials in the WT range?. Unforgiveable...

A lovely day for my first ever Duxford Air Show. As expected the lighting was challenging but it was a sunny day and no complaints about that. I paid for a place in the Gold enclosure and it was well worth it I thought. Photos in no particular order. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53996489167_7...

On my way to Duxford I spent an enjoyable afternoon at Lakenheath. Lots of movements and and bright sunshine as well. It was my first visit in a long time. The last time I was there were F-111s in the circuit... https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53997676490_b64ec7a6bf_o.jpg 5503_D750_06_DSC_5195 b...

Missing Ride in Manchester this year as I'll be at Duxford but I've seen them a few times now.

Latest update from this week. We had a very enjoyable evening at Manchester's Deaf Institute to see a loud, noisy feast of indie/shoegaze whatever you call it. One thought I had was I would far rather go to ten concerts like this than one standing in a field to see an set of overpaid, overblown &quo...
