Stealth jets

Mad's Dad
When we set up the next spot to our Nimrod at Mildenhall show as you described, the power set lead was (obviously) lying on the ground and the full set of steps and a big board stating "Stealth Nimrod - Remember! You didn't see it here first". People actually stopped and took photos of it, a smallish crowd gathered and the chap delegated to do the "face the taxpayers" role was confronted by a large-ish chap with small step ladder and lots of cameras and a rucksack with the words "'ere! This is a fookin joke - in't it?" Chap puts finger to his lips and shakes his head. Photo gets taken.
