Congrats TTN. How time flies!

You kept that secret from your local friends? Congratulations anyway!

Congratulations, TTN. We also celebrated or 50th recently. Time flies, it only seems like 60.
|
Thanks chaps. I think Mrs TTN is more deserving of congratulations, not to mention a medal for putting up with me all these years.

TTN You could, of course, organise another V Force reunion at Newark Air Museum/Golf Club and we could all then personally congratulate you and Mrs TTN ! |
Nice thought, but sadly over the four reunions we organised up to 2014 there was a steady but relentless decline in numbers attending as people inevitably fell off the twig or old age and infirmity made the journey too much. NAM was organising smaller scale "tribute to the V Force " reunions up to 2018, but I dont think there are any plans for one this year.

My son borrowed a dozen precious swords from the RAF for his wedding sword party. The sword party stood outside the church in a light rain shower but not all the guys ensured the swords were thoroughly dry when they were sheathed. Before he left on his honeymoon the next day, he entrusted one of his RAF buddies to return the swords to the stores. Unbelievably, his friend forgot about the swords in his car boot for two weeks! When my son returned, he found them all covered in a thick layer of aggressive rust! It took almost 2 days of hard graft to return them to their previously pristine state. I am sure he had other things in his mind! Jack |

Thanks again ! |
Thanks for your kind comments NRU74. We all enjoyed it and must mention that the real hard work was put in by the volunteers at Newark Air Museum.
