Looks airshow close!

Maybe I should follow up on those e-mails saying that I have won the UK lottery! :lol:

Wow, what more could you ask for? Your own grass strip and hayfields for your horses. I wonder if our horses would like to return to their ancestral home?
Annual habitation tax of 4,000 euros per year sounds pretty cheap if that is all the property taxes. I wonder what the utility bills are for the place though?
Looks like a heck of a place for a warbird fly-in. 8)

Looks like something out of Jonny Quest episode. Only thing missing there is Race Bannon, the jet, and a couple of Spads

That's a "lottery home" alright. We've been there (Normandy that is.) and it's one of the most beautiful places we've ever been to. I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Even without the runway.

Mudge the dreamer :wink:

Hmmm, looks like it needs a few 109's sittin' outside. But not enough room for my B-24 though! :evil: :wink:

Looks quite like the farmhouse at Quatre Bras(?) in the Battle of Warterloo. Maybe that's where Wellington kept his Westland Lysander?
