What a wonderful sound. Here I am meeting The Pilot in Toronto in 1980 and a sketch of what I thought he might have looked like in 1940. I never ever thought I would meet my boyhood hero. Reach for The Sky!

Had fun this morning searching though our photo archive for photographs of the temporary EMS huts (emergency medical sevices). They were erected to house injured soldiers from WW2.
The first 10 patients with maxillo-facial injuries arrived from Dunkirk on the 3rd of June 1940.

Reading Léon Werth's “33 Days”, the lenght of time he and his wife spends on the road after leaving Paris, trying to cross the Loire in 1940. But he is caught up in the fighting and forced to shelter with a diverse cast of characters. His portraits of them are very astute.

More fashion illustrations from my mum’s sketchbook which she began when she was 13, dating from 1937-1940. She always loved fashion and art so when she left school she studied fashion illustration at RMIT in Melbourne.
