    I wonder if the company would have more interest in restoration, were it a Spitfire or Hurricane ?

    Then again, if you can afford £5million for a boat like Lady Sandals, a yearly berthing fee of £21,600 is loose change.
    Do doubt also TAX deductible ?
    Apparently it’s only in London for a short while, then back out to the Caribbean.

    Duxford will have to update their information board.

    Seems like an eternity from the days when I was a youngster. Camping with my parents in South Wales.
    Watching an endless stream of Gannets doing circuits at Brawdy. I hope we get to see one in the air soon.

    Actually not as expensive as I imagined: http://www.skdocks.co.uk/marina/prices-facilities

    Although looking more closely, the prices on the right are per metre.(strewth !!) I might be able to afford to
    have a rowing boat there for a day 🙂

    Some lovely boats there. I doubt many of us could even afford the mooring fees ?
    I imagine the cost of eating and drinking in the area is expensive too ?

    Better get back to aviation, before we get onto Jamie Oliver 🙂

    Here’s a few more of mine from Sunday. As previously mentioned, winter maintenance is well under way.
    I just hope someone knows how to put them back together again ? 🙂

    Is this Firefly the one to be restored to static or flying condition ?

    It would appear to be a deliberate attempt to mislead people. I am waiting for a reply
    to an email I sent to the IWM.
