Three Spits and Douglas

21/10/2007 by Pudsey.

Another nice hot sunny day… lovely We had another relaxing pool day today, but went to the upstairs pool instead of the downstairs one - less flies!! Debs and Nigel spent most of the day reading so I decided to read too… Debs has finished the Douglas Bader story so I picked it up… Ooh it’s good… I have something in common with Dougals… we’ve both flown Spitfires!! He was a brave daring man who was fearless in battle and the story is well written - you can imagine that you too were flying with him Love the book - am going to enjoy reading this. Wonder if I’ll get another Spitfire flight in before the end of my flying year?? I’ll have to see who I need to talk to!! I’ve actually been in three spits - the BBMF one, the HAC one with Charlie Brown, and the OFM one with Paul Bonhomme… I wonder how many people can say that!! Ohh it’s great being a flying bear
