FFS!
Ah! A contribution from our resident man of letters. Writing any good books lately, Jacko? OMG, you're not writing one about an existing senior officer and so got upset about what I've said about some of them? Oh dear, what a pity, never mind, lovely boys, as Windsor Davies might have said. Mind you I do endorse your sentiments about the bravery of Flt Lt Goodman DFC and indeed of all who are doing such dangerous work on our behalf. All the more important surely to keep demanding that they get sufficient fit for purpose kit to do it? I do not offer any comments on the Merlin in that regard other than to say that the urgent need, in common with so much in AFG, is for both quality and quantity. Both cost money. Both must be forthcoming. Now could you just give me a hand, old boy, to get down off this mangy old nag?
