BIG BAND SUNDAY

June and I had a good day out yesterday, with lunch at the Buck, and then on to the Air Museum where the Big Band was playing.

Good music and meeting up with lots of friends and lovely weather, a nice way to spend a September afternoon...

It is always a good place to visit lots of things to see even on an ordinary day, but the special days are really worth going to, a lot of effort goes into the day, well worth it as a good crowd once again..
Nice to see all ages there as well. A good way to remember all those who not only gave their lives for us, but for all the folk left behind who have lived a life with injuries from the war, and more so for the wars that are still going on, a good way to Help the Heroes of today as well.
The singers were good as well...
There were some great swing dancers, but they were rather fast and the pics are blurry they were fun to watch and feet were wanting to get out with them.
The only picture I could get of our Dave who was well hidden! but sounded great..a drummer with a great heart, sounded good Dave..
The flight that was supposed to come over could not take off as where we were it was good weather, but where the flight was going to take off from was very windy and of course the Battle of Britain areoplanes are so precious they have to be well taken care of. however a local chappie has a Mustang and he did some great runs, my little camera, or is it me? could only manage to take this one, but at least I got it!
Then a pleasant walk down to the river before returning for the second half of the music, made it a lovely Sunday.. Hope you enjoyed yours wherever you were..

What an unconscionably spiffy way to spend the day!
Good to see Dave again, even out of focus. You nailed that Mustang with your tiny bonsai camera though. Well done.
