Great to see you had a brilliant day @daffy Mike, we don't get many airshows up here in the North West, the one that used to be at RAF Woodvale is no more, because of mainly moaning local's (Money talks) and the one they have at Blackpool is a bit pointless for two reason's, 1, They can't fly too close to the sea front and 2, it's nearly always cloudy and raining lol. Seriously it is a good show when you can get to see them and i just wish there was more of them. 

Great photo by the way. And the one of the Chipmunk.

Are you trying to rub us up the wrong way - can't beat a good rub with a towel  . My towel will come into use tonight when I have my birthday bath.

they said we would find ex Halton apprentices everywhere and here is no exception.  What entry were you Tom?  I was a 140 and I wonder how many more are on here.  To add to Mike's son's experience, I only ever got to have go with controls on two flying aircraft.  A light aircraft (I don't know the name of it) and  a Tornado GR1.

While Training at RAF Locking I got a flight in a Chipmunk at Filton, One of My proudest boast is we overtook Concorde In a Chipmunk....




We were flying straight and level over the grass down one side of the runway, While Concorde was taxiing down the runway.

When we came back later Concorde was parked and I presume strapped down because her engines were singeing the grass somewhat...

done my first bit of modeling since june starting to feel better hope to get good news off the doctor tomorrow 

Doctor said that as my colitis has cleared up a lot i can come off the steroids  this will take two months as i have been on them so long i have to reduce them slowly
my other med i will have to stay on to keep the colitis at bay hopefully   
will be pleased to be off the steroids at they stop me from sleeping and i am tired and hyper at the same ? 

i am now off the steroids and been to see my consultant today he is happy with my progress and will be staying off the steroids
he has told me to watch what i eat over Christmas and a void food that can cause me trouble  as my blood test show that they is still inflammation in my bowels so could trigger a flare up

well had a bit of a blip in march but things are still going good

Surprisingly enough, Air displays always cost a lot less than wars! And tend to be more popular with the public who, for some odd reason find a display by the Red Arrows more entertaing and better value for money than dropping bombs on some foreign Johnnies!

  for the helpful soul who just took my order at Papa John's. Total was a few pence shy of £40. Thanks to their persistence, the third time they explained that orders over £40 qualified for a 40% discount, I finally got it and added a 39p dip. Bingo, new total £24!
