    It looks as if the RCAF veterans are staying at the Petwood,Woodhall Spa, a few miles from Coningsby,the hotel requisitioned by the RAF during the war as the Officers'Mess,RAF Woodhall.

    My son's friend,now a free lance journalist was at the Petwood in their company yesterday and reports that they had a good day.

    Day's events to appear on BBC Look North tonight...can be picked up on SKY Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.

    How can this be 10 years ago !

    I thought it less than that.
    I was just reading another website & it mentioned that it was 2014 that the 2 Lancs flew together.
    That took me by surprise.

    My policy of late is however many years ago I think something was... Just double that figure & you get much closer.

    So does 'dead soon' translate into 'dead very soon' or you'll live twice as long as 'soon'? Just asking as I'm travelling in the same direction as you at the same speed and consequently share a vested interest. :)
