Hi All,
Why thank you Paul! 😮
Here’s another thing I cannot understand in todays papers most advertise the fact this pillock has now been more or less identified as A,B or C. Why do the tabloids make this public knowledge ? When I assume it would be better to let him and those who will undoubtedly protect him on his return think they have got away with their acts of murder, then trail him as he walks through the gates of whatever airport to return to the so called jihadist fighting get film of his movements then nab him on his return to the U.K. or better still send a sniper team to take these ******s out in what ever country they are fighting in ?

Hi All,
That WW1 war poems was a hard book to get into more a case of splitting hairs than actual poems, just a review and dissection of the poems that were penned at the time. Anyway back to the book I have just started SEPULCHRE by Kate Mosse 2nd in the Labyrinth trilogy.

Hi All,
With other Lancaster restorations on going what would the feasibility of trying to recreate a (Lancaster B Mark III Special (Type 464 Provisioning) ?
Being as Mr Hall has two Lancaster project’s on the go I would think the IIC that Bruce mentioned (Rather than the MkX of KB976) would be an Ideal candidate ?
To my mind Mr Hall has the perfect opportunity to recreate this modification as all other Lancaster restorations are true to the aircraft identity restorations are they not ? Or do all aircraft restorations need to be true to the aircrafts actual identity ? After all they did a similar alteration to Lancaster’s for the film so the drawings must still be available from when they altered the Lancaster’s for the film, except this alteration would be a complete replica of the changes made to the design before the raid.. Here is a link to the KB976 with all it’s history if interested:- http://www.timefadesaway.co.uk/strathallan/kb976/kb_976_intro.html

Hi All,
I had a reply from RAF Waddington as to why all the airworthy Avro’s will not be lining up.
Mr McAviney
Thank you for your e-mail.
The 3 aircraft are visiting RAF Waddington as a venue to complete their planning for commitments during the day. The opportunity to view them together is therefore at relatively short notice and taking advantage of their individual schedules. We are not looking to extend the opportunity any further, there has been a high level of interest in the event as it stands. Also it has to be borne in mind that RAF Waddington is an operational station and daily business will be on-going throughout this event.
Regards Janet
