"Snub"

Again, let's not forget for whom the veterans fought, half a world away from home, and who invited them to the UK. I'll bet HRH QE2 did not foot the bill for being flown out to Oz on a RAAF B707 in 1980, having been invited here by the Australian Government. BTW, I too congratulate Mr David Lowy on his generous gesture. Not sure what the inference was in the post from forget which included the quote "Must be some POM blood in there somewhere". Maybe you would like to expand on that a bit forget.
