ORIGINALLY POSTED 26th March 2020. So...the last motoring event before the first Covid lockdown. Vintage Cars on slippery hills in nearby Herefordshire. It already felt strange and even a bit inappropriate at the time!

FIRST POSTED 2nd March 2020. An emotive cocnert beneath the wings of Concorde with my youngest daughter following in her grandad's footsteps , playing cornet in one of our local Brass Bands (A serious business in the Forest of Dean).
