Interesting stuff

 

Are you going to go and find the locations mentionned/photographed?

May well do Lauren, but maybe not in this 'drought'!!!!!!

I have just found this from my local area.

Sending our best wishes. Get well soon boys. X X

Mine is kind of simple

Spitfire 1a AR213 taken at a dampish Shoreham in 2008

Remember seeing it many a time a Booker. Used to cycle there every few weeks in the summer when I was younder. That was about 11 miles each way. Must have been mad.

One very nice aircraft.

Off topic I'm afraid! :undecided:

I know booker well, I was born in High Wycombe!!!!!!! Small world. :kiss:

An avatar is quite small, so one don't really see the details. Mine for example, is a picture af a painting commemorating the return of the boers after being banished to Ceylon,after the 2nd Boer war, following the defeat by England . On returning home to there farms all they found were burnt-down farm dwellings and graves.

 

This particular photo depicts such a farmer on his return. For me, this it is heart-rending.

The under-writing means, when loosely translated:

"It is the clear, it is the blue:

it is the field, it is the sky:

and a bird winging overhead in a lonesome flight--

thats all.

 

It is abannished returned over the ocean.

It is a grave in the grass.

It is a falling teardrop--

Thats all"

That's really nice.

My avatar needs little explaining! I really am called Rosie (well actually it's Rosemary) at shows I wear Rosie the Riveter look a like clothing!

Thanks for the reply Rosie.

 

No, we will be very quiet, i was just nervious there may be a locked gate of something?

 

30 - 40 mins, blimey, thought it was closer then that?? Will need to be off site by 5.30 then................:shocked:

The ferry may be slightly closer but not by much!

Not long to go now, am getting excited!

A small group of us are attending the show for the first time, then we are off to Normandy on the Sunday morning.

 

I assume there will be no issues getting off the site early? I think our ferry sails at 7am?

 

Does anyone know how long it takes to get to the port from the show ground?

 

Cheers

Shouldn't think there would be a problem getting off the show ground as long as you don't sound your horn or anything like that!!!!!! Assuming you're leaving from portsmouth it's about a 30-40min journey depending on your speed of course!!!!

You're not the only one Rosie!

 

Those pics are really great and bring it all back don't they?

They sure do!!!!!

woop woop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Didn't think of taking one!!!! Would have done one tonight but the cubed was late in and we seem to be in the middle of a monsoon at present!!!

Awesome !! :dancinggirls: The purists will be offended, but I'm fascinated to hear how it performs !

From the very first attempt, she sounds sweet!

I still get this when viewing the events page but can still see events details

Also appear to be able to view the rest of the site with no problems. When I click on my membership details I get

Jack?? What did he do to help out? :stop:

Just saw the J and assumed, sorry darling. Thanks for all your hard work. Am home now so after dinner will have a look xxx

Haven't actually checked the website yet, am on lunch break at Uni so will check tonight when I get home

I've pinched this for my facebook page!!!! I need one of them down my road for sure

Adrian- I have fried tomatoes instead of beans.

Tony- all gone! Nom nom nom nom!

Thought we would have a practice session for start of season today. So I got up early and prepped stuff. What do you think?

we believe you keep your room tidy or 50 press ups ! :saluting:

Ha ha ha!!!

Hmmmmm I might have to remember that one!!!!

Is this OK?;

 

Sorry, Enigma, but as a free member you do not have access to this part of the site.

That's what I get to!!! I think Jacks trying to sort it though, poor bloke what with organising the biggest tank event in the world, running the biggest forum in the world and also being a woman in his spare time!!!!! Guess he's a tad busy!!!!!!!

You guys!!!!! I'm not that bad!!! Well ok then, I might be tough!

Both boys been up several times with "I can't sleep!" Jack (used to being on top bunk) has told me he thinks there is something under his bed!!!

Well the carpet arrived today and as you can see its been christened already!!!

Also wanted to show the secret under window cupboard. Eventually when the cubed gets round to it there will be a door (which I have been instructed to paint camo to!)

I have moved Jack in now as he was eager to get in today!!!!!!!! So now both boys have their own rooms. Happy days

I think I might go get some to Timbo, just reading this thread makes me feel bad!!!!!

OMG I think I'm going to be sick! :-|:help::noyay:
