that have been aired here....Just a polite thought to the hundreds of you who have always wanted to put your thoughts and experiences to others but have been too timid or self deprecating or too uncertain of your own ability (as I was) or just too darn lazy ?
Well said REG, I couldn't have put it so eloquently, I was initially very uncertain, only having had a technical education, and certainly not known for my journalistic ability However I was encouraged by people who had fathers , uncles etc, who had been in aircrew during the War, and wanted to know about the minutiae, not to mention the encouraging P.Ms I received.
Also , as I have given all my memorabilia to my grandson (thirteen), and noting the high price on Ebay of memorabilia when supported by information on the original owner, I decided a print out, of my contribution, would enhance the value of the memorabilia. If he keeps it for a few more years it should appreciate in value.

Finally I thought, I don't care any more, publish and be damned .

So as Reg and Delia said " Lets be avin yer"
