That will be a nice change.  Last time I was in London in late September it was 37.  Bloody melting in the heat, and of course...not dressed for it.  Next stop was Norway, and at least I got wet enough to cool off.  Come to think of it last time I was in Russia in September it was in the 30s.  Russian winters are propaganda!  

Really looking forward to the Normandy updates.  One of my favorites.  Ugra is top shelf; anything they do is an instant buy.

Nice to see Normandy 2.0 soon out of EA. My favourite "green" map before CWG was released. Hopefully full steam ahead with the Cold War Germany now

What a coincidence. I visited the Montelimar museum last summer holiday when we were in the neighborhood.

Very nice and extensive museum with friendly personnel. They even gave me a private tour to their airworthy Bronco

Montelimar is superb. Spectacular even. To discover that grand old lady in such an unasuming abode was quite the experience. Sadly there were no bronco's about when I was there, six years ago or so.

 

Man next update is looking yummy! C-130, Normandy, whatever Heatblur are gonna drop.. *sweet!*

Hoping that Biggin Hill at least gets a windsock at last.

Not too much to wish for.
