    Looks like a guy defuelling on the extreme left.

    Are there some guns missing? Top turret and cheek.

    Did they not wear the harness underneath their flying jacket then simply clip the chute on as required? I don’t know, maybe a (real) expert will tell us.

    Not really a film, but the complete BBC series on 2 discs, Borrowed from the vaults of Dr Strangelove, and watched yesterday, tells the wartime story of German S.S. counter intelligence printing dodgy £5 notes and trying to sink the British economy. Worth a look, even if it is the only way to understand wtf Dr Strangelove is ‘quoting’ passages from, on his visits to Spitfire Corner(!)

    I had just been to West Drayton, the ex-site of LATCC Mil and now being developed into 4,500 homes. The first 450 homes had been built and Weston Homes put on a thankyou type function to the workforce and investors. They wanted the Spitfire as a link to the RAF on site. Went up Thursday and came back Friday.

    Graham, I stopped at Taunton Dene services and paid my toll (in trap 2):D

    I have another show early March in Kent for one day so I might be spotted again then.

    The Japanese still engage in whaling and have a tradition of driving tens of thousands of dolphins into small coves each year and senselessly slaughtering them.

    Don’t see the Porpoise in this…………..

    Not as funny as “Shaun Of The Dead” or “Hot Fuzz” but a few good belly laughs, not bad to get you through the Sunday night blues before you head back to work.

    I seem to like Peggs films second viewing onwards.

    In Paul, I started to notice the references to other major si-fi movies throughout, which on subsequent replays made it much more enjoyable.

    San Carlos on the Falklands was ‘interesting’ (1982) for their Islander (FIGAS)
