I drove past the Vulcan a few days ago and it's in a sorry state. I can't comment on the structure but the paint has faded and the windows look to be covered in grime. It's a sad end for an old war-bird.

Many said the same about you Max B.... a sad end for an old war bird! Pot calling kettle over

Shopping at Morrisons? No maybe not, walking dog on the beach then.
