Now come on Cliff - a beach buggy - at 87 years old?

Seriously though, should I even be surprised in this unique thread?

Not only are the main contributors in fairly elder years, but the recollections they share are detailed and most enjoyable. Not to mention the total lucidity and lovely prose of the posts. Oh and the apparent mastery of computers/internet in order to deliver them.

Despite all the years, your capabilities still abound. But then again, RAF pilots in WW2 were never just 'ordinary Joes', as your posts admirably demonstrate.

I'm afraid you 'old farts' are making some of us 'young farts' feel quite humbled

And bloody good on you. As someone else posted, it's almost like waiting for the next installment at the cinema. I'm sure many readers of this thread will agree.

It's all appreciated, keep it coming
