    I have a small but decent one that I would be happy to let you borrow. (By the way it is an ensign not a flag)
    It measures 18 inches x 30 inches. It is a cloth one that has been hand stitched together so it is good quality. It would allow room for flowers on the coffin as well. Anyhow, let me know what you think and I’ll get it in the post to you.

    visiting London

    If you are staying in London how about a visit to the Battle of Britain Monument on the embankment next to the Houses of Parliament, here you will see the names of all the New Zealanders that flew in the Battle.
    Also, up the road (about two miles) the RAF church of St Clement danes.
    If you are willing to jump on a train to Bexleyheath (30 minute ride from central London) I’ll meet you and drive you to the Battle of Britain museum in Hawkinge for a day out.

    Hi,
    I received one from actemis yesterday advertising a great new site.
    I haven’t opened it so perhaps they could be added to the list of deleted accounts.

    Gordon Batt

    Hi all,
    Atached is a close up photograph of the Batt emblem on the side of his hurricane. This was painted on by his groundcrew.
    Also a copy of his portrait by Cuthbert Orde completed in 1940.
    I hope you enjoy them.

    Robin Appleford

    Hi all,
    So as to avoid any confusion here, Robin Appleford of 66 Squadron (Battle of Britain) does not visit websites threatening people.
    The posting from ‘Concerned’ is obviously talking about an entirely different Mr Appleford.
    I just thought that perhaps people may assume that they were one and the same person.
