"Buster".....

......some of you may remember my talking about a 94 yr old ex-RAF pilot who I thought would be a good fit in here if he could be enticed in here to read some of this wonderful thread.
I found a former course mate from South Cerney and ex Shack driver living in the same village as my brother-in-law who was also part of the plan and arrangements were put together.
When approached, Buster said that it was all too far away in time and he would prefer NOT to go back that far into his life. (I think he may have expressed hiself more robustly).
Ho hum - it was worth a try and I still would like to spend an evening in his company.
