Totterdown Hill

Viewing the Fairford Air Show from Totterdown Hill is a first class experience, you are effectively in the center of the flying display area. There are excellent photographic options, no mater the direction of the Sun.

The facilities provided by the site are very good when all things are considered, there are hot drinks and hot food available all reasonable priced. The cost of entry into Totterdown Hill is very reasonable, but is based on the car and its ocupants.

It is possible to camp on the site, there are ample toilet facilities and there are a number of shower facilities.

Gallery Post

This is a test of a gallery post, where I have selected 10 older scans of Black and White prints. There will be couple of posta for testing the site out, obviously these will drop through the post history and dissapear from view in time.

It has been a steep learning experience putting the site to gether, still it will probably be worth while in the long run. The gallery function is probably going to be used with a few posts, once I get round to visiting somewhere I can take pictures of aircraft.

I’ve got a couple of other pages to put together, but think I’ll publish the site as is. So hopefully it will all go OK, the site is probably good to go functionally but there is quite a bit to add.

Site Update

Well the first part of the site update is done, the front page has been redone as has the blog page. I’ve added an about page and I’ll be adding more posts and galleries over the next couple of weeks, so in a couple of months the site should be in a good place.

I intend to add a review page, where I’ll review things related to spotting – well they could be related to other things as well. But I’ll review them from a spotters perspective, so the reviews might be handy – you never know.

Finally now that I’m back down in the central belt, I’ll hopefully to get to Prestwick more frequently than I have in the past. And once we are allowed out to play, I’ll hopefully make it to a few of the other airports as well.
