VE DAY 75 CANCELLATION ADVICE

I am afraid that the terrible Coronavirus emergency and consequent Government guidance means that we must advise participants to cancel or postpone the majority of the VE Day 75 community celebrations due to take place on the bank holiday weekend of 8th - 10th May. It is right and proper that people should be kept safe and healthy.

My sincere thanks to everyone who registered their events and were looking forward to celebrating VE Day 75. I know how disappointed you will be that these cannot now go ahead as planned. However, we are still encouraging solo pipers and town criers to continue to mark the occasion from a safe and suitable location.

I am hoping that all the events you have carefully planned can be moved to the weekend of 15th - 16th August when we will be able to celebrate VE Day and VJ Day, both momentous points in our history. I am in ongoing communication with the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport regarding this and hope to be able to give you more news in the coming days.

With my very best wishes,
Bruno Peek LVO OBE OPR

I'd suggest you look at the actual calendar, too Steve.
https://www.military-airshows.co.uk/listing.htm
All listings are cancelled for the next couple of months, and many in future months have also cancelled.

Just got in the new 10.6 M rail Station is finished this week odd just along the line near the caravan site they have found a unexploded WW2 DEVICE . Wonder how many times my mates and me have walked over it after a night in the pub next to the line . Must keep the Mog out the way dont want wooden mog splinters . And just walked along the new bit of line this m/ing Wonder how it got there makes you think spies around then .

Funny that was Dads job during the war bombs and booby traps etc . Had he still been a young man he would have sorted it out for them with 100 per cent safety . He was always as cool as a cucumber .

We have some bunting left over from Felixstowe carnival so we plan to decorate the front garden. I also have small St Georges Cross that will be displayed.
Maybe we will have our own street party for 2.
