    Ah well, it’s bad news for me. The car has developed a problem, could be brakes or a wheel bearing. I can’t get it looked at until tomorrow so therefore I won’t be coming down to the meet. I was looking forward to meeting up with you guys tomorrow but sadly it’s not to be.

    Have a good day tomorrow. I look forward to your photos.

    TU 154 comes in and this was the best shot I could get, very disappointing.

    9L LDQ is safely on her way south. She crossed the West Midlands at 18.45 at FL170 and heading 150 degrees. Didn’t pick up where she was heading for. She looked great with the sun shining on her. Sad to think we’ll probably never see her again, but at least she’s back in the air.

    Re: For battle of Britain day. P/O Ronald Atkinson

    Dezz.

    “I spent most of yesterday trying to find his grave in woodlands road cemetery. Today I paid another visit, in between some call’s I had to make, and came across it almost straight away.”

    Isn’t that odd? Almost like the real significance of his sacrifice, and that of others, is encapsulated in a single day, the fifteenth.

    “Here’s to P/O Atkinson and all his mates who gave their lives turning Britain’s darkest day’s into its finest hour.”

    Here’s to them, and in the words of the old song…..

    “Bless ’em all….”

    Steve,

    what a great reminiscence. Definitely something for you to tell Haydn about as he grows older. You say you’re not sure what the point is? Well to me, it’s the simple fact that we often look at people today and see an old man or an old woman. We see the veterans at airshows and events and we realise their service sets them apart in some way. Now we know the same of your Mom. At the age of two she was far more involved in war than you or I would ever hope to be. I think sometimes we take that for granted.

    An example, my Dad aged 14 was a messenger with the Civil Defence. On the night Coventry was ‘Coventrated’ he sat with a much older colleague atop Barr Beacon and watched the City burn. He was scared by the sight but was ready to go with his colleague to take supplies into the devastated city. He’s 76 now and at times I think he’s a silly old ‘bu**er’, but he’s my Dad and seen sights I’ve never dreamed of.

    Regards,

    British is a collection of nationalities i.e. English, Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish so which are you?

    I am English by birth, British by accident and European by an act of parliament [/QUOTE

    I’m English. Live in the same industrial town where I was born. I am also British as England is a part of Great Britain. I am not now, nor ever will be Europoean in my eyes.
