I noticed the 'Links' list on the home page had a British Pathe site so I just had a look.

For those of tender years or resident outside of the late British Empire the name probably means nothing. To a geriatric like myself it is redolent of stirring music, the cockrel logo and sitting in cinemas with the latest girlfriend anticipating the evenings entertainment. (Any perceived innuendo there is in the mind of the reader.)

Anyway if you are interested in 20th century history, want access to some really good contemporary reference material, or just want to wallow in nostalgia this site is worth a visit.

I found this site to be a bit slow on my browser but it was worth it - I have extracted more useful info on the Gloster Meteor than from all other sites/Google searches to date.

Regards Dave
