Car Chase Heroes - Bond DB5 Blast
My all-too-short two laps in the replica Bond DB5, at Abingdon Airfield Circuit in Oxfordshire in November 2023.
While not a genuine 1960s Aston Martin, this replica really looks the part, and is powerful and enormous fun to drive - and (I'm told) was involved in the production of the final Danial Craig Bond Movie, No Time to Die.
This was a gift from last Christmas (Virgin Experience Voucher), and although it took me until November to book my drive, was worth the wait!

Replica Fair Organ
Переглядів 263Рік тому
Between 1967 and 1979 my Granddad, Cyril Runnicles built a working replica Fair Organ at my grandparents' home in Beccles, Suffolk. Sadly, my Granddad passed away in 1981, however his Fair Organ was eventually put on display as part of the "Bygones" exhibition at Holkham Hall. Here we see the organ bringing joy to the visitors to Holkham in 1998! Sadly, the Bygones exhibition closed some years ...

In May 1979, while on a family vacation to Florida (from England), we drove across the original 'Sunshine Skyway' on our way from St. Petersburg Beach to Busch Gardens.

I was just nine years old in May '79, but remember feeling somewhat nervously excited, mainly by the apparent steepne...

While on a team to install some Flight Simulators to the Delta Air Lines training facility in Atlanta in fall 1992, we had an opportunity to visit the Maintenance Base at The Hartsfield Airport (as it was known then).

A nostalgic look at Blackpool in the mid 1960s. This short cine film - taken by my parents before I was born - records their arrival in the seaside town for a summer holiday. Nice to see clear roads - and the variety of vintage cars in daily use! Music: www.bensound.com

Twenty years separated my two visits to New York City, in June 1999 and Oct/Nov 2019. Here I have attempted to combine together selected highlights from each trip recorded on video.

My first trip to New York City in 20 years, having last visited in June 1999 - this time with my family - took place just a few short months prior to the COVID19 pandemic, and sadly also, as it turned out, the end of long range travel by Norwegian Air from the UK. This was an absolutely beautiful NYC morning to depart on Norwegian's day-time Dreamliner service to London Gatwick. From my vantage...

While working shifts on site in Hong Kong in the spring of 1991, I would often switch on the TV in my hotel to see this - 'Zap Rap', a Kid's TV show from TVB Pearl.

    It's like the towers where the titanic of America. I saw a weird similarity between the way the two towers looked and the date that they were destroyed on because it was 9/11 and the towers look like an 1 1 . The full date is 9/11 2001 and you can read it like : 1+1+2 = 4 and that gives the exact total for the number of the target areas and buildings that where hit. There were 4 aircraft which were hijacked but one of them went down in a field somewhere in New York State. Just trying to make lemonade out of lemons go in peace.
