MARCUS
Howzit Beaver I was introduced to an ex RLI officer who asked me to go through his "stuff" for any interesting militaria. Amongst it was a notebook taken off an "expired" gook. There are references to the airforce, written and drawings. I mentioned your book and that you were always on the lookout for new material, should you be interested let me know. He has posted it to me in the mean time.I would also like to order 3 signed copies of your book.Regards Marcus Main-Baillie PS great blog site !!!
