- 14 July 2013 19:55237390thanks brian, the owner of this delightful west highland terrier told me that a storm was brewing because of the body language of her 13 year old charge.
i hope she didn't pay much for the useless mutt.

- 15 July 2013 11:13237424Sorry Howard, but Battle of Britain Day is in September, yesterday the site was celebrateing 20 years since being opened by the Queen Mother. The fly past was by a Hurricane II and a Spitfire IXE. Both the replicas at Capel have been returned following a complete overhaul and repaint, work on the Wing begins in August and the site now has a new manager to run the site, so all is moveing in the right direction, I hope to reurn to duty there in a few weeks time, once I am fully fit again.
I'll keep you updated as best I can until then.Phil Wyborn - Brown at www.wybornphotography.co.uk - 15 July 2013 13:11237431altered the thread title phil, i blame the heat for me forgetting the real date.
anyway the great and the good were fenced in yesterday just in case the starving peasantry thought it was a food bank.
