    Oh, your pictures Mrs. Kyte are much better than mine! It was - as you had said - a very difficult object to be photographed!
    Thanks for posting them!

    You have touched a very delicate issue, dear Daniel, for:
    1. I would love to have a look like that those days
    2. Ball was the most handsome ace pilot of the Great War, I must admit!

    I am almost welded, Steve! A big camera, wallet, mobile, Nottingham guide book, souvenirs bought...everything is inside! And I can still have hands free for a glass...Women are smart carrying their bags
    Frankly, I have a nice collection of backpacks for many occasions.
    Since my luggage was temporarily lost on my way back from the States, now flying to and from Doncaster I had all my planes in it!
