Apologies for the spotter tone of this post, but seeing as the most interesting thing that normally happens over here is the cars rusting, I was very surprised to see what looke very much like a mk IX spit transiting west over Ramsey in the Isle of Man yesterday evening.
Did this happen, or was it too much cider again?

There's been a Spitfire (and a few other interesting aircraft) lurking around Blackpool this weekend, presumably taking part in the Walney Island (Barrow-in-Furness) airshow. Maybe he was just going home the pretty way rather than down the M6. (Or popping over to the Isle of Man to give a mate a fly-by.)

Then, again, it could have been the cider.

well, I am the muppet. We had a military VE day tattoo yesterday it transpires, so it was probably something to do with that.
In my defence, I was in the UK last week.

Maybe he just wanted to plot a route that had three legs in it
Up the Ramsey boys!

Indeed, a VE Day bash/tattoo on Saturday evening. Was on the course at Peel at around 2000 when a Dak came over descending towards St Johns followed around 20 mins later by the Spit and lastly a display from one of those new-fangled yellow and dark-blue jobs wth too many moving parts from Valley.
