Its funny I can remember your last posting about Hereford quite well, but what did I eat for breakfast this morning is still a mystery. Now you have left me with a problem, I have to put up a picture. Give me today to try and sort one out please.

Richard,

Is it your driveway? Also why the solid white line down the middle? No overtaking?
Have no idea at the moment but am working on the clues, hangar, high ground in the background and the woodpile.

This is the Pre war area, then re-built in wartime, coastal cammand. The bungalow was the pre-war private watch office.

The only one I one I can think of would be Chivenor. The old civil airfield was quite a way from the RAF airfield, until the loops were built.

A 1941 aerial photo shows the old Barnstaple Airport site being used as a large dispersal, joined to the main airfield by a taxiway. The airport buildings look very similar to the modern aerial photo in layout.

Any way here's another less well known one, well at least for me!

Not even a guess?
If you want we could play it hangman style, just the blank spaces'cos I can't do the drawing thing. Do people still do ASCII pictures?
