Last night I went to the premiere of “Sean Crowley’s Story”. A documentary about an old friend of mine who rowed across the Atlantic, solo in a boat that he built in his back garden in Croydon. A true adventure epic.

London Croydon Airport Postcard with 2 BOAC Stratocruisers and an Air India Constellation. . #London #Croydon #Airport #Postcard #BOAC #Stratocruiser #AirIndia #Constellation #AviationAvgeek #Travel #LondonHistory

Black-and-white postcard photograph of London Airport, showing three large passenger aircraft parked on the airport apron. Two BOAC Boeing 377 Stratocruisers stand near the center and left of the image, identifiable by their large, rounded fuselages and distinctive double-deck profiles. An Air India Lockheed Constellation is parked on the right, featuring its triple-tail design and long, curved fuselage. Airport buildings with flat roofs, windows, and small flags line the left side of the scene. Two people stand on a paved pedestrian approach in the foreground, facing the aircraft. A tall flagpole with supporting rigging rises prominently on the right, with a flag flying near its upper section. Curved streetlamps, low hedges, landscaped grass, and paved walkways surround the airport buildings. The postcard has a simple caption reading “London Airport” in white lettering at the lower left.

Those aren't good intentions, but they'll do.

Sun, Apr 11, 1920

Page title: "Rotogravure Section"

Photo of a man driving a paving machine with tank-like treads over ground covered in helmets. A wooden farm fence can be seen in the background.

Caption: "PUTTING THEM WHERE THEY BELONG - The most remarkable road in the world is being laid at Croydon, England, one of the centers for gathering captured war material. Having a lot of German war helmets and nothing better to do with them, the road builders decided to use them as paving stones."

A classic #WildWebsWednesday at this time of year - an Ivy Bee foraging on an Ivy flower in the pub car park in Kenley where we had lunch yesterday. This was after a very interesting tour of the airfield led by volunteers from the Kenley Revival Project.
