Afternoon chaps [:)] Looks like your favourite Limey is going to be on TV. No, not sprior. Or Goodboyladdie. [:-] Obviously they've fast tracked me, I'm far too big-time for regional news. Instead I'm hitting the national news [X(] on the BBC no less. Presumably this is something to do with the RAF employing the less-able elements of society, such as myself [:D]
Or it's to do with the passing of the last Battle of Britain veteran.
Martin, you'll have to let us know the details of the broadcast when you know them. [:)]
BBC News at 6pm. I was in shot for seconds. Literally seconds! I have to say that the archive footage used was a bit poor. I don't remember the Luftwaffe sending formations of Flying Fortresses against the airfields or Fighter Command using P-47s. Or the Luftwaffe using Bf-109G fighters.
Oh well, now I just sit back and wait for the requests to flood in. I expect to be opening a hospital this time next week [:D]
Wow! I just had a thought of what a P-47 would'a done against some flying pencil or He-111. Well, a man can dream, can't he? As for those B-17s: Sorry about that, mate. We musta got turned around en route to the reich or somesuch. [:(]
