I was working for the BBC yesterday at the National Memorial Arboretum VJ day 75th Anniversary. I stood with all the others present for the two minute's silence. Fascinating to see uniformed representatives of all the Eastern campaigns.

Could I thank the pilots of the Lancaster/Hurricane/Spitfire fly-past. Absolutely glorious. Flying right overhead at about 500' and brought tears to my eyes, as the sound of Merlin engines in flight always do, because of what they achieved for us. Thank you guys
