Re: Cold and wet in York
What a collection :thumbsup: Yes it is and I think they've added more in the 14 years since those photos were taken.

Re: Cold and wet in York
Well, if you're anything like me, Alan, spending a few hours wandering around old aeroplanes will cheer you up no end. Hope things pick up for you soon.

Re: Cold and wet in York
