We’re slowly recovering from a hectic Victory Days weekend and now moving on to the first full week of the 2015 school holidays don’t let the weather forecast put you off visiting!

Plus the Museum Shop has some great new stock to help keep everyone occupied this summer!

Various bits of information have come from the museum today.

Indoor Aeroboot / Aerojumble on Saturday 17th October – 33 seller tables now allocated and the seller passes are being sent out this week.

Vulcan Story event on 24th October – this is booking up fast; 15 spaces left in the morning & only 5 spaces left for the afternoon.

Details about both of these event can be found in here!

Further ‘traffic advice’ has been added to the website for the next few weeks. Plus we are now participating in the CallConnect bus scheme, which can be of benefit for any visitors from rural Lincolnshire.

Again details about these items can be found in here!

An ‘if, but & maybe’ news item has just been added to the museum website with respect to the Vulcan 'Farewell Tour', and what might be happening at the museum.

Nothing definite but some options have been outlined in here!
