Hi Ade,
Detling would have been on my list with the W&P falling over again but unfortunately I shall be in Greece enjoying a cold one (or two). I have looked but nothing to be found there I fear (South Peloponnese - WWII did get there but I can find no trace now!)
Like many I am suffering badly from "show withdrawal" and have only managed one (Malvern) since before lockdown. In my case the situation is compounded by my job requiring me to work so many weekends (yet they keep banging on about the "work / life balance"). Hopefully I will manage more in the "off season" months!
I hope you find some treasure
Regards
Mark

I'm still trying to decide re Yorkshire...great vehicles but poor stalls. I can now do Detters as another trip has dropped away...and Harborough will be a goer if we take the vehicles...then Malvern...then Christmas!
I am going to odyssey again this year! And also the duxford air museum
I went to Duxford a good few years ago and it was brilliant. It is on my list to go again in the near future as I believe there is even more to see now!by Jb4046

It’s some of the American post ww2 stuff I want to see. That SR71 is a rarity!
Then you will love the American Memorial Hall. As I recall it had a Scud Missile Launcher parked underneath a B52

Just mentioned to the wife that I may go AWOL on the sunday to go to military odyssey when she suddenly says, oh I think I'm free that day I'll come with you!
My Mrs went with me once in about 2005 and was bored witless. The trick is to bombard her with (to her) mind numbing crap until she is grateful for your considerate offer to let her sit in the sun with her magazine, a cup of tea and the promise to hurry back as soon as you have just "checked out one very boring thing". She won't go again, trust me. Job done and equilibrium restored!Just mentioned to the wife that I may go AWOL on the sunday to go to military odyssey when she suddenly says, oh I think I'm free that day I'll come with you!
