Here to tell my dad's story. He was a welder at a colliery, became an RAF bomber pilot in 1942, flew Lancasters to Valiants until 1964, became a welder again

The first time the Valiant was seen in the new antiflash livery. 18th November 1956. This picture of XD823 was released to the press #twitterVforce #valiant

@MightySWFC @thecarolemalone @StephenLees4 Thank you for making my point so precisely. It is up to all of us to make it work not, even my lot on the fence. This 'I didn't vote for it, I'll sit back and say I told you so' will not help us one iota

Hey idiot - this is an organisation that would rather see this country broken, broke and humiliated rather than do a deal that would be beneficial to us all. So what would you call them? And YOUR subservience to this unelected protectionist cartel makes YOU an embarrassment!

Found this on the net. The artist used my dad's crew in the 1957 SAC Bombing comp as inspiration. Not sure why though but fun nevertheless #twitterVForce
