    Just a one off then. Local press up to their usual standard of wordsmithing then!! Looks like Sam will definitely have to come down “Airbusitis” on his 3rd day back at school!! Pity the viewing area has been swallowed up. Looks like Catherine De Barnes lane for arrival and then car park for departure!

    I expect the departure to be via R24, golf course, M6 and stopping at keele services for a refuel!!

    Have you thought about the top floor of the NCP car park adjacent to the old Elmdon Building? You get a good view up there and the rozzers rarely bother anyone.

    Ndege.
    Was the aircraft a loss or struck off during/at the end of the war?
    I had some success regarding tracing the relatives of a Lancaster crew who lost their lives in ’45 near where I live. Their relatives were able to tell me some wonderful and poignant personal stories about their lost loved ones.

    My lad having a great knock and helping his team win their first cricket match for 2 seasons! 😀 Played like a demon. Bowling wasn’t up to much for some reason but batted like a much older lad. He’s only 10 by the way!

    Will now have to see it thanks to your good reviews. I was here and there about emulating the original cast, but it seems they have pulled it off. Jolly G.
