From: Quite near 'An aerodrome somewhere in England'
Not so fast, Tombstone.....

The promise included a song of my choice in each Marham crewroom with the rose held between the appropriate cheeks.

So 'The Flag flies high' it shall be - excpet that the words shall be:

"This Rose flies high and proudly
And I sing for a happy first flight
Now see the Earth a-tremble
At our Vulcan's military might
So give to me your hands, my friends,
Your worthy hands, my friends
And we'll all, we'll applaud 558,
Ecks Aitch,
Ecks Aitch,
Ecks Aitch 558..FIVE FIVE EIGHT..AIN'T SHE GREAT!"

Any old RAFG mate should be able to give you the tune - amend the words a bit to fit if you need to!

Let me know when you have the film and I will make sure that it goes to Primetime Joanna!
