If you get a buzz out of the sight and sound of old aircraft, check out the Shuttleworth Collection just north of here. It's a real treat to see old engineering flyng past on a summer evening. I must pay another visit as they keep adding to the collection.

Apologies to site admin. if I've boobed and overloaded the system again - please amend link as necessary

That's a thought. There are quite a few pubs i (linky) in the area, and I guess other elements to make a day or weekend of it.

There's a good little Motor Museum just down the road at Lower Stondon. The place is a bit down down at heel and some of the exhibits could do with a bit of TLC but there is some interesting stuff in there including a Yamaha GTS, although prices have gone up since my last visit, it's now £7.50 for Adults and £6 for pensioners.

Bit of a coincidence there - was talking about maybe organising a Lincolnshire Lancaster Bomber run with the CMC boys whilst we were on Snowjoke XI

 

ink a few old airfields together & a visit to to East Kirkby to watch 'Just Jane' do  a taxi run if anyone is interested 

 

Saturday 13th September is the date best suited for my diary - if there's enough interested, I'll get planning  :good:
