Tues 17th April - Long Mynd

With the actual weather being as forecast it was a question today of deciding what to do and where to go. With several of our group having not been to the RAF Museum at Cosford for a number of years and with others wishing to revisit one group set off by car for Cosford mid-morning. With David Cowley and Andrew Logan continuing to impress others with their detailed knowledge of all things aircraft it was anticipated that the visit would see much discussion between the two of them and that they might not progress past Hall One before the museum closed. And as expected there was an argument over the serial numbers of the instruments used........

 Another group set off for Hereford on the train and wandered around the city finding that the local museum and cathedral are recognising the part played by the local population in both providing men for the 1914–1918 and also women and men for the Land Army and Home Front.

The evening ended with a group meal and much discussion around the potential soaring tomorrow - fingers crossed that the accuracy of the good forecast is as good as the accuracy of the poor forecast for today... - Mike Sloggett
