If you think having to paint a red nose on every Christmas is bad enough in this hot weather, wait till they make you wear the Santa suit!

<not a caption> That is, as you say, a good story, Danny. The BOAC Comet touched down in a game park short of the runway, rolled, then landed safely at Nairobi. I note that, depending upon who tells the story, the game park was 7, 11 or 16 miles short! Lucky it didn't meet a rhino.
