The chicken-shit power station on Eye airfield
Brome Village VE/VJ Celebrations, The Village Hall, Brome, Suffolk - 4th September 2005
As a quick stop-off on the way back from Southwold, and prior to a BBs gig in the evening, Nosher stops off at Brome's VE/VJ Day celebrations for an hour or so. DH and Marc are already set up with beer, and the ever-photogenic Alfie Elliot is milling about. A bit later, the Vicar arrives, followed by Peter West who was to give a talk on WW2 history. In attendance is the anti-aircraft truck "Claire", which we'd seen a few months back at Debach airfield's open day. There's even a quick but noisy flypast from Maurice Hammond's Stearman.

A tractor trundles around near Pakenham
A tractor turns around
It's all a bit harrowing
A bee does its thing
A field of sunflowers
Sunflowers near Denham

A teleporter follows a trailer around
The old Hoxne Service Station
Old petrol pumps in Hoxne
An old diesel pump
A marquee outside the village hall in Brome
Alfie roams around
Alfie Elliot mills about with his tankard
Clive 'Chickens' with his military vehicles
Local resident Frank arrives
DH and Marc lean against the village hall
Alfie again

Alfie and Marc
Hanging around by the village hall
Alfie slurps a pint
It's like the 1940s
A woman in an appropriate dress talks to the vicar
Lofty Land, the social club's barman
Clive in his gear
Lofty, side on
A veteran (left) talks about flying escapades
An impressive collection of memorabilia
More history rummaging
In the village hall
The balloons are out
Maurice Hammond's Stearman flies around
Alfie borrows Marc's combat helmet and salutes
Clive's collection of stuff
Alfie again
The village elders
Peter West chats to John Lummis
Alfie Elliot
Ellie hangs around
