I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

I know what you mean. I was driving back from the Lincolnshire coast when across a cross roads in the corner of a field by the field gate I saw a memorial and instantly recognised the 12 Sqn badge.

It was commemorating the crash site of a Lancaster crew that had crashed there on a training flight. Another car had stopped and the two young men using the memorial for another purpose were very embarrassed when Mrs PN and I stopped.
