A rather nice catch from my local 2nd hand bookshop £6 the pair @almurray.bsky.social

@bsky.app after the latest update your app is unisable on iPad because of the way the photos keep appearing when the feed is scrolled, it keeps jumping past the text to show the image. Not helpful.

Reading The Donkeys by Alan Clark. The fact the author has to add a solicitors footnote on page1 of chapter 1 to clarify a point I suspect tells the reader all they need to know @alexchurchill.bsky.social

Has the Press announced what the annual Christmas shortage is this year yet? I feel the need to panic buy something. #christmas2025

After all the talk of Swordfish on The WHW Livestream this evening @normagraham.bsky.social @almurray.bsky.social

Furious Speed @shuttleworthtru.bsky.social Race Day

The first in a short series of posts from the RAF Museum in honour of the @nmtdambusters.bsky.social Pod. First the stalwart of the early Gardening operations, the Handley Page Hampden (complete with battle damage) @jamesjhistory.bsky.social @lydiajane13.bsky.social 1/7

Following on from your excellent talk at WHWF @danellin.bsky.social @marybrazier.bsky.social the Lancaster has a number of flags in on it representing the nationality of the crew and the RAF ensign (not my photo obvs). Not all flags are bad but upside down Union Jacks are a giveaway

Eds and Avros @shuttleworthtru.bsky.social Summer Airshow

We had two Spitfires fly over us on our walk this evening, presumably on their way to RIAT. Mabel didn’t care, she just wanted a paddle

[email protected] just finished listening to the episode with @alexchurchill.bsky.social and its confirmed her place as my favourite historian, I always learn something, and she makes history relatable. Sign me up for your course this winter please Alex.

Saw this on a treasure hunt around Exeter today and I thought of you @historypegg.bsky.social

Albatros! @shuttleworthtru.bsky.social

First batch of highlights from the @shuttleworthtru.bsky.social Military Air Display

So a Spaniard sponsored by a German company just won Americas great race. Hows it going Trump

Ladies and Gentlemen the Shuttleworth Collection is now on Bluesky at bsky.app/profile/shut.... Give them a follow

An Airco DH9 and Bristol F2b in formation you say? Oh go on them, why not. An amazing sight @shuttleworthtru.bsky.social Season Premier not seen probably...ever before! 1/2

The CAF DFW Wing R4D Ready for duty was the static display star at the Shuttleworth Season Premier airshow 1/3

Lovely view at Wittenham Clumps this afternoon @traceyp.bsky.social

A brilliant episode, as always I learnt so much from Victoria about the process and mindset of research. The book is on my list and hopefully I can get it signed at WHWV @spitfirefilly.bsky.social

Turned out nice again.

Back in my happy place

Life is too good at present. Something is about to go tits up.

I've booked tickets for Helen Fry and Kate Vigurs www.ticketsource.co.uk/event/EDHIDD...

Did anyone see Benny Hill on a bicycle near Heathrow in the early hours of this morning? IYKYK #heathrowblackout

A barn owl spotted hunting, seen during Mabel's afternoon dog walk at about 4ish in the afternoon.

Sorry @cerirt.bsky.social

What a tremendous honour to be at IBCC yesterday for the unveiling of these beautiful silhouettes of women in war - deeply moving, and very important. Wonderful to join @lydiajane13.bsky.social, @claremulley.bsky.social & Jeannie Benjamin in conversation afterwards too. Brilliant work, @IntBCC

So its either an act of war, or they got lost trying to visit a Cathedral news.sky.com/story/captai...

Situated on the island between Sutton Pools and Culham Cut on the Thames in Oxfordshire sits a lonely sentinel a Type 28a Anti-Tank pillbox. It's was built there to protect the Sutton bridge over the river between Sutton Courtenay & Culham it has a twin on the other bank on some high ground

I have walked past this sign many time at Abingdon Lock @historialchats.bsky.social I presume that you have heard of this group?

To celebrate international womens day my considerably better half has dyed her hair bright pink #loveher

Buzzards in the garden

Morning dog walks are lovely on days like this.

What would it have been like if we had social media at the time of the Cuban missile crisis? #unbearable

@stevenomadic.bsky.social Mr G, just read this interesting Blog by FR24. I presume this will affect you when you fly non-HF equipped aircraft across the Atlantic. As an enthusiast I would be interested to know your thoughts please.

Archaeology/buildings 'sky. Friends have a house in Wales with intact bread oven (and old copper). Does anyone know of any books out there with info on the practicalities of firing it up? It needs tlc and repointing but it's basically sound. All my general building books are, well, too general.

I walked across history on my doorstep today

Culham Old Bridge was built in 1416 over the old course of the Thames to replace a ford called Culham Hythe & improve the route into Abingdon. It became strategically important during the English Civil War & was seized by the Parliamentarians after the Royalists left Abingdon in May 1644 1/4

@apribors.bsky.social Big hugs, we still love you.

As a historical Avgeek I've always known of Operation Tidal Wave, the low level raid on Ploesti by 8thAF B24s, but the @mighty8thpod.bsky.social somewhat blew my mind about the details of the raid. Bravo @mikehistorian.bsky.social @johanntasker.bsky.social mighty8thpodcast.com/episodes/s1e...

A lovely sight and sound appearing out if the gloom this afternoon
