Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Yes mate, I was on one of them !!! I spoke to you on the Sunday night, you were with the other Paul, our guide !
I actually booked the same hotel to go over again this year, but changed my mind so I could go to Duxford
I wasn't very well last year on the trip so I want to go back again
Ah right mate i remember now , Paul Reed our Head Guide was with you , you'll have to go again our 4 day OMG Tour is a good one.
I was down to do the Anniversary weekend this year as well , but we only had one coach out , so i got to go to Duxford instead !!
