If I can find a date, Wickenby (Lincolnshire) Wings and Wheels is well worth a mention :D

It's notmally June the something and they usually get flypasts from the BBMF (Lanc one day, spitfire the other normally).

If it's not the week I'm going on holiday with my friend then I'll be going :))
If it is, perhaps I could talk her into bringing me home early =)) =))
