Lancasters over Stamford

Finally caught up with the two Lancasters today having been frustrated when last Sundays flypast over Peterborough was cancelled due to high winds. So made the short trip to Stamford where a flypast over the classsic car show taking place on the meadows had been added to their schedule. It was all over in about 20 seconds or so but it was worth it, especially as the car show was free!

Missing Malta

Courtesy of the remnants of Hurricane Bertha it's been a wet and windy day at Barnwell Towers today. I can hardly believe it's three weeks since we were here...

Left the NUJ, by accident!

A couple of weeks ago I had an email from the NUJ telling me that new minimum subscriptions of £10 per month were coming in to effect from 1st August. Realising that this would more than double my current contribution of 1% of my profits, I decided that after 35 years membership it was time to leave, so I emailed my resignation and stopped the direct debit with the bank. A week later I got another email to say that the £10 minimum didn't apply to freelance members and that the 1% rule was still in place. Clearly I wasn't the only member that didn't realise this!
