Swinging Monkey.

A truly beautiful poem written by a TWA Captain. I chose it to read in my eulogy to ex Lyneham C130 and Britannia Captain, Chas Finn-Kelcey MBE, at his funeral in April. Still a much loved and missed friend who I think of almost every day. As does Di and his children, as well as his many other friends.

I will as usual pay my respects to the fallen in my own way on Sunday. Especially, I have to say, those who fought in WW2 so I could be here today. I do not forget those heros of WW1 either - brave men one and all.

God bless every single one.
