The day started early for me, leaving home before 8am in order to meet up with
the other vehicles further south. The trip took around two and a half hours in
total, with around ten vehicles arriving in convoy. It was warm and sunny to
start with, but as the day went on, the clouds rolled in. Eventually the
lightning and rain started, directly over the airfield, with the result that
the BBMF Lancaster didn't show and we spent the last couple of hours hiding
from the heavy rain which persisted all the way home.
