Duxford , duxford, duxford! Live about an hour away, anyone planning to go to the Battle of Britain airshow in September?
Nothing ventured - nothing gained and I know this is cheeky but-
does anyone staying on the campsite on the Friday night have a spare place in their tent for a Boo?
I'm bringing antoher Clodder down on the Sunday but it would be nice to be able to partake in Friday drinkies if there was a chance.
Id be happy to pay for the pitch for the Friday as a gesture of thanks.
Cheers
BOO

I'll bring some cans and some prawns to throw on the barbie.
Gonna missing out on the camping thing tho,
the wife has insisted on a comfortable hotel room in Cambridge.
Oh well, sacrifices must be made. : )
I'm bringing my very own portable château. I will be putting signs up too.
No talking.
No laughing.
No removing the signs.
That sort of thing.

When I watched that there was a soundtrack of Yotheguy playing in my head.
"erm 'SEAS... no!!!... don't turn so hard Ahhhhhh... you are gonna stall it man... ahhh!!!.... 'Seas, serious... don't turn so hard. It's not a Hurricane dude.
then the soundtrack goes silent.
But only because I can't bare listening to the "See... see that?... it told you so . man... I told you so.
Then he pulls some dumb arse manoeuvre and says simply "Rad"
Which is a bit weird really given that I mainly use ailerons, elevator and a touch of rudder myself.

Well i would love to make it to Duxford 2017, but I can't. I hope to in the next year or two though.
But what i can do is make a suggestion.... and here it is:
Every year the DAG (Duxford ATAG Gang) has a theme song for the year.
I think that it might be fun to submit your "song of the year", and see if it is picked by? maybe the group going votes? That bit can be figured out by those with clearer minds than mine. And Lew can blast it out of the boombox I'm sure he must take.....
Anyhow, here is my pick for the DAG 17 group...... cuz it's gonna be a bunch of young dudes going, right?!
And my choice is, "All The Young Dudes", by Mott The Hoople.
I feel it is a good choice, cuz Bowie did a cover of it at his Isle of Wight show, and goodness knows, both red and blue hang around that place a lot (although the blues tend to be uninvited guests on the Isle)......
Well I think it might be fun. Anyone care to join in?
Cheers!

"If you want to fly, give up everything that weighs you down"......
Bowie wrote that. For Mott the Hoople.
All us young dudes recall this well.
He then released it himself after they did.
I prefer the mott the hoople version .

Boo, you know the number 1 rule for camping with other men dont you?
Beware of campsites with Rainbows on them! Big Bertha, may turn out to be Big Bert!....Just saying....
I didn't know that. HS. I knew the Mott version first, and was actually going to put that up until i saw the Isle of Wight version and tied that in to CLoD.
Learn something new every day...... and did you know that Cleveland Rocks!
Abd ya, Sp00k, i have to agree that the rainbow flag and friendly wave might make me just a tad nervous......
To give equal stage time... here you go:
Good stuff eh!
Edit: Not that I am against the rainbow flag or all that it stands for..... just being silly, as i usually am here....
