Nice

Didn't realise you were driving a "Panda Car" now..........................................

I take it that the cafe wasn't open for bacon butties (best for miles!!) and a cuppa??

If you are referring to The Kitchen (formerly Truck Stop) just down the road at Nocton Heath I've never been TBH, though I've heard lots of good reports about their Sunday lunch

That is where I go for a "proper" breakfast whenever I am getting an MOT done across the road.

Even your car could catch this plane Bryan - how many years is it since it moved

Nice pics though!

I reckon it may be almost as long again until the snow melts

No, I meant the portakabin in the aircraft viewing enclosure.

BTW the Vulcan XM607 is the one that bombed Port Stanley runway during the Falklands conflict. The pilot, Martin Withers, wrote a superb book (funnily enough entitled XM607) about the operation. Fascinating reading!

My wifes' uncle used to fly those things. I think he was the first to barrel roll one. Evidently they where more manoeuvrable than some of the older jet fighters of the time and occasionally swapped training rolls for interception until the higher authorities put a stop to it.

Excellent.

I must admit as part of their show they do get the old girl the wrong side of vertical a couple of times.
