Very pleased to have picked up this little item which is closely linked to the talk I’ll be doing with @ChrisGatenby2 at #WHWFV in September @WeHaveWaysPod @almurray @navalhistorian @NickHewitt4 @churchill_alex

Convoy Passing An Island, Eric Ravilious, 1941. Made when Ravilious visited the Isle of May, in the mouth of the Firth of Forth in the autumn of 1941 during his work as a War Artist. The original artwork is in the collection of @Brit_VisualArts. #Scotland

GHOSTBUSTERS was released 41 years ago today. A 1980s comedy classic and one of the most popular of Dan Aykroyd and Bill Murray, the making of story is as huge as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man… 1/38

Spotted through one of the windows at the back of Holborn Library.

Watch the full talk from last year sofo.org.uk/pegasusbridgei… @6thairborne @armyflying @Gliderpilot44 @GPRSociety @WeHaveWaysPod
