Re: Donald Campbell's restored Bluebird in museum home row

After seeing K7 at Bute, the last thing i want to see is that she's tucked away in Coniston, only to be seen by tourism trade. She's now a living memorial not only to a great man & his team, but a great, never to be seen again era. I'd personally rather she was toured, whether it's Austrailia, U...

As I said on Monday I cannot make it. My son was going but his wife has insisted on a weekend away.

Feeling rubbish through chemo seems to be a transient thing so I hope he feels better soon.
Thanks Bill, hopefully next time 👍

Maybe next time.

He also had a Me 108 which was what he was shot down in at every show. Along with a ...

Re: Visit to North Shields- model makers.

I think flight would arrive at Newcastle 09:40, getting out & cab will probably take it to 11 arrival at the shop.
