When my husband stumbled home a few weeks ago muttering incoherently about ‘Broadsides from a Sea Fury jockey” he also let slip that this mightn’t be a one-off, and indeed that you sir might be graced on you next visit to look at ‘leg ends’ (obviously some kind of lap dancing establishment) by the presence of the better half of your family.
If this is the case I am enquiring politely whether she will need additional guides on her expeditions to visit UK retail establishments?
I would strongly advise this. The UK can be a minefield. We have a shop called ‘Boots’ that doesn’t sell any stylish footwear, a store called ‘fcuk’ that only sells clothes, and a restaurant called McDonalds that doesn’t sell food.
Please get back to me via this forum so that I can make suitable plans.
In the meantime please be kind to Moggy. His little toy has been in the menders for ever such a long time and he’s extra grouchy at the moment.
Bye for now
Sandra Cattermole 🙂

Rightho!
(Moggy back again)
I’ll have a chat with her tonight. She’s banned from the forum at the moment.

Dear Mrs. Moggy,
Thank you for your kind offer, and sorry for my delay in responding as I’ve been at an airshow for a few days and away from the computer. I discourage my wife, Allison, from viewing the flypast forum, especially while I’m away, after the unfortunate experiences during my visit in May. After reviewing the photos from that trip you’d have thought all your husband and I did was down pints at the local. I’ll have you know we did lots of other stuff. We, umm, well…something about Spitfire and Kent and downing the Luftwaffe, or give the kid a Broadside? Abbott and Monks? India Speckled Ale ring a bell? Oh, never mind.
As for our trip, we’ll be over for a week, arriving the Wed. before Leg-ends. We’re staying in Bedfordshire near Andy and Mrs. Andy in Beds, who I believe you met at Old Warden. I’ll send a PM with the girls email addresses so you can discuss meeting up with Allison and Vanessa and doing “girl stuff”. Whatever else I know we will all be at Duxford on Saturday (traffic permitting) and that Sunday will just be “the boys”.
Thanks again for the kind offer, and we look forward to seeing you and Wing Commander Cattermole very soon.
Cheers,
Stephen and Allison Patterson

More knowledgeable than I, I thought it was something to do with football 😀
