    Listened to Radio 2 at dinnertime, the talk show had a the debate on wether it was right or wrong, John Nichol was for, the campaign and Bruce Kent of CND was against, they also had an english veteran who was in one of the cities at the time of the bombing, he has been on the show before and described what he saw, however he didnt condem Churchill nor did he condem Harris.
    My personal view echoes that of John Nichol who quite rightly stated that we WERE at War and Bomber Command were the only ones who could strike back….

    Afraid it’s not anti-flash but standard white as painted by the apprentices a good few years ago.

    I think its as near as possible we will see for a Vulcan in Anti Flash, unless XH558 gets another lottery grant and theres about as much chance of that as the VTS has of not sending any begging letters this season 😉 😉
