Re: Proposed changes to photography military photo rules
I have to admit that Terry has now got me thinking a bit more (and wavering). This is why: One line of reasoning behind the proposal was that it might encourage more postings and thereby increase the membership.

Re: Proposed changes to photography military photo rules
sorry if it offended, it wasnt meant to but I did hope to explain that the nostalgia forum wasn't changing so wasn't perceived until it was raised. At that point the mods discussed it a bit and Mike posted our thoughts on 28-5 (4? posts back). I think that certainly distracted people from the origin...

Re: Proposed changes to the photography forums and posting r
We are hoping to come up with a ruling shortly but unfortunately the topic drifted off into the discussion on 'nostalgia' and what was deemed reasonable - it needn't have done so because we didnt propose to either amalgamate the nostalgia forum with any others or change it's rules but the military i...

I was returning home from Italy on Thursday after a few days with my daughter and family, due to fly Ryanair back to Stansted. the flight was delayed and delayed due to the aircraft going tech elsewhere and finally departed 6 hours late. 188 very unhappy passengers! and one who thought what a chance...

Re: Duxford D-Day show 24th / 25th May
loks like they mean it this time as well, I'm not surprised about the fields but am about Grange Road itself being off limits unless they feel they need that clear for emergency vehicles if the worst should happen:

Re: Proposed changes to the photography forums and posting r
The mods are discussing it and we will give some guidance once we have all had some input, however I would suggest that the amalgamation of the 4 old sections shouldn't affect the future content of the nostalgia section, for now just use your own judgement and if we feel something obviously needs mo...
