My Flying Control Jeep - The Ongoing Story

"Last Man Standing"

When we got there on Monday morning, the field kitchen was gone, but for their tents, the other dioramas ( except the Hand-me-down brigade ) had packed up for the Durham market place event and we were the only vehicles there. So rather than being at the end of the field, we moved the vehicles and barbed wire further up to where the field kitchen had been.

The sun was out again for Monday, but not all day and there were a few heavy showers. We'd enjoyed the show, despite the weather trying its hardest to spoil things, so had made the right call not to camp.

Village D-Day Beacon Lighting - June 6th

A week and a half after Tanfield, we took our Jeep and Dodge to the village green for the D-Day beacon lighting ceremony. The Jeep also had its RAF markings added again, so the vehicles represented both Commonwealth and US forces at the event. More about that will be posted on my Dodge thread shortly.

Poppy Field Photoshoot - June 19th

I needed to pick my daughter up from school on Wednesday the 19th of June, so I took the Jeep for a run out. There are a number of poppy fields around here at present and I wanted to get some photos with the Jeep.

We made a 10 mile trip around some of the local lanes, ending up at the wood next to the village church. It's a shame that none of the roads pass right along side a poppy field, but it was still a lovely warm afternoon drive.
