    Duxford is a fab day out. To be honest, it’s more of a weekend thing as there’s so much to see, especially if they let you walk around the rebuild and storage hangars.

    I’ve been to a few airshows there, and got a flight over London from there too. Duxford gets the official NeonSamurai ‘Fab Day Out’ stamp of approval.

    In fact, I was going to give my GF a season ticket for her birthday so she could visit Duxford as many times a year as she wanted to, but she said she’d rather die. Apparently Karen Millen vouchers are a ‘much better present’.

    Get it for her anyway..

    That way you can use the ticket and she can stay at home.

    My flat mate used to work there, and my mates garden overlooks it… small world and all that.

    Maybe we should arrange an ‘XDC day out’ and all descend on Duxford en masse. A bit like one of Leigh Mallory’s ‘big wings’ in fact. They got a tea room and some toilets there as well, so there are two less things to worry about, when planning it.

    Actually maybe it’s a bad idea. What if Max thinks he’s actually playing Battlefield 1942 and flips out? He might jump into one of the tanks and go on a killing spree shouting “‘Ave it!”

    I’m not worried for my own safety you understand as I can lock myself in one of the toilets, but I’m worried about the ladies who run the tea room and what might happen to them.

    Just as well I took the toilets and the tea room into account during the planning stages eh?

    I still think we should have a meet up,And a WW2 museum would be the perfect location. 8)
