I suspect there is more story to this ………. Gotha attack on June 5th 1917 diverted to Sheerness perhaps? Or an earlier Zeppelin? With anticipation I await your elucidation.
Nope, sorry to disappoint, but that’s it. Nothing more (see my reply to Nick below)…….at the moment.
reminds me of seaside postcards from my childhood, there was always one ‘at night’ lol
But you, my friend, have hit the nail on the head. Will explain more in a later postcard (or you can work it out for yourself).
Oh soddit. You are going to make me have to change tomorrow’s now, damn you. Lol!
Oops, sorry (honest) lol
I don’t think you are………..
It looks light search lights. Never saw night time postcards when i was on hols. I am intrigued. So funny these chaps thwarting you M perhaps there getting to know you to well.
Tell me about it! Just realised that changing tomorrow’s means changing the next day too!! Honestly, the things I do to try to keep you lot entertained mumble grumble mumble…….
Please don’t change anything on my account, I’ll keep schtum I promise hahaha
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
