Fly To The Past (Blenheim Palace) piccies...
Scorching day today, and a damn good show from everybody at Blenheim Palace, which has a bright future as a show venue I think - but gawd it's expensive at 40 odd quid a ticket including car parking! Still far less hassle than RIAT, the music & aircraft mix works well and the 1940s atmosphere was great.

Ref DB's 1st picture - don't know yet what the females are doing but the blokes in the background are doing it too. 
Mmm . . .maybe the gals are trying for the Barbra Windsor effect from Carry on Camping?

Excellent piccies again DB! Bet the old duffers in Woodstock didn't much like all that noise - I used to live literally just over the wall from the palace and they used to moan about the puddle jumpers at Kidlington - they must have been absolutely purple with indignant outrage.

5 points for guessing which bit of music was being played over the PA during the first picture... and witchdoctor, I had one of the locals come over and ask for copies of the pictures I was taking so they weren't all purple!

Ring Ring Ring (sound of old bacolite 'phone).
Dah Dit Dah Dit Dah Dit .................... (morse coming through the 'phone)

Well done Barnes, I knew it could be done!
