What's On - May 2015

 Dear Readers,

I recently sat down and drew up a list of all the vintage and wartime events Indi and I hope to attend this summer for a friend so we could compare notes. I realised that this may be of value for you lovely folks too as so often it can be difficult to know what's happening until it's been and gone. Generally at the beginning of the year I will go on the internet and trawl through for all the events I can find listed and add them to my calendar. I also go back and check periodically in case something else has been added or possibly even removed. I put all of the events into the diary regardless of how many there are or what else is going on just so I know what is coming up. There are some events which are a must for us every single year and then others which I have in the calendar and are more flexible on if we attend or not - usually weather dependent!

Celebrate the spirit of 1940s Britain in Lincoln's Cathedral Quarter - including fly-pasts from Dakota and Avro Lancaster WW2 planes - in the 70th anniversary year of Victory in Europe.

Lincoln's Cathedral Quarter will be full of atmosphere over the last weekend in May for a 1940s celebration. You can expect re-enactments, live music, vehicle displays and more.

Full details at www.visitlincoln.com/1940s.

Do you know of any other vintage or wartime events coming up soon? If so let me know so I can pop them in my diary or advertise your event here!

  1. The 1940's weekend on the Bail sounds like fun. Have you seen that Woodhall Spa have a 1940's weekend on the 17/18th July? It looks good, just working out if I can get to it.

    1. Oh no I can't believe I missed out on this and so close to home too!
      Did you go Jac? If so I hope you had a good time at it. I'm trying to curb my spending now that we have a date for our wedding.
