Things That Gladden The Heart

Lady Doon going out for her first proper outing since lockdown.
Full length of Turnberry Beach and back.
Social distancing was easy with the 7 other folk and the 2 dogs,
Beautiful day too so her new camera was in action
She took a nice photo of a lost buoy on the beach.;)
 
On the day of the funeral of Dame Vera Lynn a Spitfire did a loop de loop over our house, probably on the way back from the Battle of Britain Memorial Folkestone

East Hams finest RIP......I saw what I thought was a Spitfire landing at Duxford this evening, I wonder if it was the same one?

I doubt it, we have pretty much daily Spitfire flights over us coming out of either Headcorn or Biggin Hill and flying to, and from, the Battle of Britain Memorial or the BofB museum. Rarely a day goes by that it doesnt pass over us.

I'm lucky to be based at RAF Coningsby home of the BBMF, the Spitfire, Hurricane and Lancaster all took off from here early yesterday to fly down and take part in the memorial fly past for Dame Vera, they really are an awesome sight to behold as they take off, manoeuvre in flight and the sound of those merlin engines is simply phenomenal.

Am lucky enough to work with the guys that fly them and a tour of the BBMF I'd say is a must if you visit Lincolnshire.
 
Shot into 18 from 97 yards. Nice swing.....stuck it about 8 feet from hole. Couple guys that finished earlier and standing on the clubhouse balcony clapped and whooped. Almost like having fans.......
 
walking down to the Ness and seeing an Osprey fishing, followed it upsteam, and was lucky enough to see it catch a fish up by the new bridge, then dis off with it, won't be long before they head back to africa for winter
