Your best warbird seen flying?

Airshow entries welcome but hoping for spots 'in the wild' as it were. And 'in the wild' to mean when you were not expecting them, not sat on a hill in the mach loop
Mine would be a couple of years ago when I was driving down the A1 (sunshine and roof down) to Brands Hatch and had the pleasure of the Vulcan going overhead at a couple of hundred feet and climbing gently whilst I was whooping away in the car.
I was also once in a small town in Bulgaria (Yambol, if you're interested) and a jet scared the st out me. The noise grew over only a few seconds and I thought there was a good chance it was the end of the world (or at least the end of mine) before two jets went over at what I guess was just below mach speed. The noise was BRUTAL. When I had un-flinched, realised what had happened, and was just about to celebrate still being alive I noticed that nobody else had so much as batted an eyelid.
