    It's the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain this year. 15th September is Battle of Britain Day as this saw the heaviest aerial fighting of the battle. As Churchill so aptly put it - "Never in the Field of Human Conflict was so much owed by so many to so few". Thank god for Fighter Command's pilots.

    Funnily enough Paul, we were in the house on Monday at about 3:45 we heard quite a number of planes fly overhead but when we went out to look we were unable to see what they were because of trees, but i then said maybe they were flying somewhere to take part in a display ready for the 15th? :fag:
