The Smith brothers in their Vimy stopped over at such delightful places as .. Cairo, Damascus, Basra and Karachi.
I'm sure a lot of the locals there will turn out to make us all most welcome.
p.s. And I'll be able to show all my friends a witnessed certificate stating that I did it solo.
......After all, I was the only one sitting in that particular seat!
