I have been sent some photographs of Association members and the like and have therefore started a new page for these. It will be like the Photographs of Police Flights etc but more recent (probably) and concerned with the life after death, sorry service.
I was at the Edinburgh Armed Services Day Parade with my Air Cadets to take photographs of them on that day. I also took other pictures, some of the RAFPA group who I chatted with on the Esplanade of Edinburgh Castle. Really nice guys I must say. I thought you may like those images for your site. You may also be able to contact the group at the castle and let them know of those pictures for me as I did not take any contact information. (done - Webmaster)
Larger sizes are available and the rest of my pictures of that day can be seen at http://www.flickr.com/photos/alastair396

Met
Dave Spence and his good lady in Skipton today and caught him spending
money in the
market can you believe?
Then we stuffed
ourselves with their
famous pork pies.
After that I got
him and the two
ladies to pose
inside Skipton Church for my
book.
Got a
few beers down our necks after
that and got
into trouble
with the
ladies. OOPs!
Many
don't believe I went to University. I guess
I
got in this
photo by selling my shampoos and soaps to
the
students? I wonder if they have
enough nous to spot
me?
