Many years ago I worked for an American airline and every 4th of July we, at Gatwick, would be wished a Happy Independence day by any crew passing within VHF range of our A/G.
Needless to say while given in good sprits we brits just growled a little remembering our loss.
My reply, also given in a good sprit, was "Thank you Sir, but remember we got there first." Rarely got a reply to that.
Coff, was that house in Southover High St?
