Re: Today in pictures

Today it was the first day of the1940's weekend at Ramsbottom.
We were there farily early.....before it got going.....but by lunch time the place was bumping.
I took over 200 pictures.......so it has been hard trying to choose just ten for today.
1) Not the Andrews sisters.
2) Kiss him Goodbye.
3) A vintage Rover with the Viking mascot. Thought the boys on here might just like this one.
4) A 1939 Royal enfield motorbike...the owner said it is a rare model and he did tell me what it was......but I was mesmerised by his moustache and have forgotten what he sadi.
5)You aren't listening to me are you? I am not sure that is what they are saying, but that is my spin.
6) Gladys and Gertie.....Ladies who 'do'
7) We'll meet again.......Vera type songs on the station platform.
8) the Frenchman left his bike.
9) a very young looking airman and a boy scout.
10) another for the lads.......can't beat a steam train...the smell of hot metal, coal burning.......very masculine.
