Your contribution was very welcome. There was a reputed "Capture" of a small island in the Med by a Spitfire Sgt. Pilot who accepted the surrender of all the German forces on behalf of the Allies when he landed there short of fuel. Can anyone embelllish this ? I think if my 87 year old memory serves me that it was Pamplemona but am not certain. Your Dad's memories of Spam takes me back to when my Father in Law who was a miner/glassworker from nearby St. Helens, raved about some sandwiches that a mate had given to him...turned out to be Spam ! Believe it or not, a lot of people loved it. You have a lot more to enjoy and can you recall any more for the rest of us ? Regle
