1940s events 2014 (early heads-up)

[bugmeister]

I'll try to update the events calendar nearer the time for each of these, but I've already run down a number of dates and events for those who like the 1940s events and the opportunity to photograph people in character (if you're very unlucky, you may find me at any of them within about 150 miles of Suffolk).

 

I can't guarantee the size or content of most of these as yet, more info nearer the time, hopefully, as I hear from various people and scour the web

 

And there's always the possibility of additions, cancellations or date changes

The Southwest Peninsula does not, of course, exist.

The nearest I've found so far is Swindon, There is supposed to be one at Barry in south Wales but that's about it, so far ( and the south west doesn't seem to feature at all )

Still, I suppose we are a long way away by 1940s bus and 1940s roads...
