was thinkin that myself… lucky git! Wish it was me!

Appreciate the moments. You can’t go back, but you can appreciate what you have right now, and define yourself by what you are, instead of what you’re not. You’re alive. Everything else is negotiable.

IIRC there was an interview with Honeysuckle Weeks in the Saturday supplement of the DM a couple of weeks ago and she said that it was filmed in the Dublin area as the city still resembles London of the late 1940s and thus avoiding modern landmarks such as the ‘gerkin’

Along with reports made on this forum and purely personal experience from visits to Eastbourne and Shoreham and in the case of the latter as a spectator and exhibitor, along with a friend displaying his LWB Land Rover FFR. They the first to came to mind.

You could argue the Shuttleworth shows with its unique display of vintage/WWI aircraft could be on the list. Although as implied by DragonflyDH90 these kind of lists are always down to someones personal preference which wont be to everyones taste

She was interviewed by Raymond Baxter in a BBC TV programme called, I think, “Spitfire !” in the early 80’s, with AB910. I have it on tape somewhere. Could be on YouTube if you look.

Here: Spitfire!

It was filmed in 1976 and has been shown a few times since. The Interview with Margaret Horton is at 48:20.
