It's not every day one has an Avro floatplane accompanying one's picnic on the beach. Them was the days. It's an evocative painting of times long past Trooper. Wake me up before you cocoa.

. A wonderful old painting, Trooper, thanks for sharing. As to the location, it's near RNAS Capel at Folkestone. That rising headland and waterfront pavilion are the giveaway. Here is a 1910 postcard of the beach at Folkestone from almost the exact same perspective. Wham! .

Wow!
Just goes to prove, that although the past may be buried, it is not dead.
Thanks for sharing, Trooper and Lou.
