Could be Rose Bay , Sydney?

Crawley Bay, Western Australia? That looks remarkably like the University of WA in the background.

Asturias: Yes, a Saro London flying boat K9686, later lost on a mission to Norway in 1940. Not Rose Bay, though.

Well done, Dora-9 - it is indeed RAAF Crawley Bay /Pelican Point, starting point of the 3500nm Double Sunrise flights to Ceylon. As a sad footnote, the 4 Catalinas used were unceremoniously flown out to Rottnest Island and sunk in order to avoid payment to the U.S.A. under the terms of Lend Lease.

My old stomping ground in fact. Nothing to hand, so OH.

Doh! I spent a long time looking at pictures of Australian churches! A university never occurred to me. :)

To avoid confusion this is an adjunct to the above challenge and is nothing to do with my next challenge.

A hangar was used in the construction of this building in 1921. A bit more tonight.........

Poole Harbour?

The newsreel says Plymouth.

Sorry chaps I didn't mean to confuse you. The film clip of the Saro Londons was an addition to gen on the previous challenge not this new one.

So sadly it is not a 'Chippy' in Poole or Plymouth.

New Zealand?

That would be fush and chups though 😂

Sorry Not New Zealand.

This Hotel was next to the Seaplane Station. Enlisted Men were billeted here.

Well, definitely England with those pink knees. South coast WWI seaplane base...?

Use of the term 'ATM' instead of 'Cash Machine' on the chippy and 'enlisted men' rather then 'junior ranks' billeted at the hotel would indicate USA/Canada or possibly Windies.
