Yes they are a pair of Highballs. Photo probably taken at the Vickers site at Foxwarren where the spinning rigs were located. 618 Sqn RAF were equipped with them and took them out to Australia in late 1944 for use in the Pacific, but for unknown reasons they were never used in anger Their Mosquito aircraft and the Highball stores were destroyed/disposed of near Sydney.

It is the 75th anniversary of the mass exodus of Estonians seeking sanctuary from the Soviets as the Eastern Front collapsed around the Narva bridgehead.
To their shame, the Swedish government surrendered many of the men to the Soviets. [Source: 75 years since the Great Refugee Flight to the West | Ministry of Foreign Affairs]

I believe the Spit (PR XI) belongs to 681 Sqn. The chap standing with his arms folded behind the camera is Sqn Ldr Donald Pearson who flew PR Buffalos from Singapore in early 1942. I met Donald a number of times and was an absolute gentleman...but you didn't mess with him. I once made the mistake of calling him "Don" to which he replied "I do not wish to be called after a Spanish nobleman!" I never made that mistake again!
Donald passed away in 2013, well into his nineties.
