On Monday we swung by the Crich Tramway museum in Derbyshire as they were holding a 1940's event.  We'd arranged to meet some friends and have a few drinks in the Red Lion Pub.  The pub was selling 1940's beer and Orange Chocolate flavoured Stout.  This was all helped down with some Chivas Regal from a hip flask that all good Airborne soldiers carried...or so I believe :)

Crich Tramway village is excellent.  A real feel for the past.  Spent most of the day in this pub, the Red Lion!
Note the mini me on the right of the pic 

The trams were free to ride and went 'down' the line for about a mile

On the tram...yes, i look like Uncle Geoff ok

Helmet off!

The tram rides were free and you can ride them as often as you like.  There is still a lot of snow in Derbyshire!

The 101st Airborne that I represent are known as the Screaming Eagles...

Not one of mine but is from Crich

Finally, the end of Easter and time to relax in the garden under blue skies..
