www.instagram.com/reel/Da2wLyF... Nazi Plane Crashes Through House. A story from Ramsgate in the 1940s

NAZI PLANE CRASHES THROUGH HOUSE
Pilot Bales Out On Roof. After the pilot had bailed out, a German plane, believed to be a Focke-Wulf, crashed right through a boarding-house at Wellington Crescent, Ramsgate, on Saturday. The raider, shot down by ground defences, entered the boarding-house at the back
and so great was the impact that the engine and parts of the fuselage knocked down the front wall and finished up on the opposite side of the road. In the meantime the pilot, aged 23, drifted

front wall and remained perched on some railings on the opposite side of the road. Fire broke
out in part of the plane left behind in the house and spread to the house itself, In spite of danger
from exploding bullets, members of the N.F.S. were on the scene within a few seconds and the
fire was quickly extinguished. The roadway in front of the boarding house was littered with
cannon-gun shells, spent machinegun bullets and parts of the wrecked plane which was
shattered into thousands of pieces. Watching from a nearby road, War Reserve Coleman saw
the pilot disappear over the house tops, and rushing into an alley found him lying on the ground
in a semi-dazed condition. He was being helped out of his parachute by a number of civilians.

The weird thing about being actual me is that even though people say the actors are too old, they just seem to get younger and younger every time 😆 I mean this Heathcliff is an absolute whipper snapper

I’m trying to strike a healthy balance between being informed and being oblivious.

Which painting has exceeded your expectations most when you’ve seen it in person? Mine, The Sacrifice of Isaac by Caravaggio. It was breathtaking

Post you from a different era This emerged recently on a fb group. It’s only the early 90’s but somehow feels so much older. I’m the littlest lass. Still am.
