This weekend myself, Ollie, Jo and a few friends took a trip over to Grassington to enjoy their inaugural 1940's weekend. It was a very successful weekend, hundreds of people were in period costumes, there were many displays and the weather was good. We parked in a disussed quarry and used the park and ride scheme to get into the village and were transported there and back in vitage busses!
Lots and lots of 'tourists' were taking photos and it was strange to be seen rubbing shoulders with and having a drink in the pub with the French Resistance, Wehrmacht, American, British and Russian Soldiers. There were many 40's civvies too and ollie was a mix between child evacuee/Resistence fighter!
Anyway, here's a few pics of me and my Pals!
