Wow this is beautiful area, yeah i remember granddad mention about the dam bomber while he was RAAF fighter pilot and he was send to RAF (exchange officer for WW2) he did mention about training bombing, he said when u drop that bomb it roll and smash the wall that will exploded, while they did training it was very difficult task because the ball bomb is easy to bounce off the dam he bearing remember that ball bomb it about 10,000lb that was enough to kill 100 people,

A beautiful structure. Wow!

Your mum is wonderful.

Hugs, Christina

Hi my Dear Michel,

Thank you very much for your wonderful compliment! I LOVE history, so this was very exciting for me that Peter took my Mum & me to Derwent Dam!

I've just arrived back to Munich after the most wonderful holiday in the UK with my lovely Mum, Family & Friends!!! :D

BIG HUGS right back to you too!!!

Luv Nnek@ ;o) xxx

[Argentium009]

You're so lucky to live over there where there is SO MUCH history right outside of your front door. I mean yes, I live in Philadelphia and sure we've got some history here but, really, it only goes back a few hundred years at most, over there, that's like yesterday. :) So, what in the world are we going to do to convince those two that they should get married eh? :)

Hugs,

Michael

[Nneka1963]

Hi my Deat Mike!!! We can't do any-ZINK!

Peter & my lovely Mum are JUST FRIENDS!!!

Mike, as I'm in Germany, in Baveria, is there a video that I can do for you?

[Argentium009]

Give 'em time, those kids will have to grow into it I guess. :)

Baveria? Ooohhh, it must be beautiful there with the fall having started and all the leaves turning. Plus I just love to see old architecture, seriously old, not like around here where my mom lives in a 300 year old house and it's like "Oh well, another row house". :)

[Nneka1963]

I'm on a Course this week but let me see what I can come up with for you in the future! :D

Luv Nnek@ ,o) xxx

[Argentium009]

Looking forward to it. :) Cool!

Hugs,

Michael

[Nneka1963]

Hi Dear Al!!! Thanx a million for watching & leaving your lovely comments! Yes, you are 100% correct, the tests were done at Teddington, Middlesex, just dowe the road from where I grew up.

[FSTOPDR]

Wonderful!

I'm sorry Peter and Ivan didn't meet... I love Russian accents. (okay, it was a stretch)

What was the song mum was humming? I loved it.

I love this kind of history... and the fact that the countries are now friends.

You guys are made of great stuff.

[Nneka1963]

Hi my Dear Dave, thanx a million for watching & leaving your comments! I LOVE history too, that's why we asked Peter to take us to the Derwent Dam. Actually, Peter & Ivan did meet when Mum & I returned back to the Car Part Dear Ivan was already there & we introduced the men to each other! :D

Luv Cecili@ :-) xxx & Nnek@ ;o) xxx

[Nneka1963]

PS. My Mum was humming the very famous "Dam Buster's March" which is played @ 4:11  *lol* Maybe it's only well know over here in the UK? ;o)
