Fantastic to see so many spitfires, hurricanes and a Blenheim bomber fly overhead today. Amazing when you think the average age of those boys at the time of the Battle of Britain was 20. What an opportunity, what an experience, but what a waste of so many young men who died and never had a full life. I am so glad there was an old guy in his nineties in one of the planes. I hope I live that long and have the chance to look back on a full life that was worthwhile. It's never too late to do something you feel proud of. Sometimes you just need to refocus and give up something that has been in the way. In my case it was always the drink - no longer. |
