Just found where it is and think there should be a terrific view from the quay - wonder how many others will realise that? :D
We're planning on going down there about 5 to see where's best :D

Fantastic.

We have the Lanc and the Dakota coming over later this afternoon. A little village on the hillside opposite us has their summer ????? fete today and they always get a flyby from the Lanc and the Dakota. One of the old boys in the village pulls some strings!

Always worth seeing too Debih, they make such a wonderful noise :)
We've decided on the sea wall, we can walk all round depending on how many people are there :)

It cleared up beautifully Saundra, we have lovely blue sky :)

Fantastic!! :D

Our own private show, along the sea wall by the jetty there was us, 2 people with a dog, and a young guy on his bike :D
They came right over our heads, it was brilliant :D

Saundra my dad worked at the RAE (Farnborough), he used to get some fab photos from the roof :)
When I lived in Aldershot lots of us would go down to the multi-storey car park, the view from the roof there was amazing :)
Then I worked on Farnborough right near the airfield, on the 3rd floor of a building that was nearly all glass - we could see the pilots as the planes flew by :D
