| Nigel there is so much that can be said about this country today,some good and some bad,like many I come from a background that is so full of pride for what has been achieved by our engineers,scientists and technicians,it never ceases to amaze me what mankind is capable of from building a huge block of flats to a massive aircraft or liner,sadly this country has we all know is but a mere shadow of what it was for very many reasons,we have become a nation of assemblers of other peoples ideas.
On top of this we are slowly being robbed of our history for example not being allowed to fly a Spitfire down a main street on a very special occasion,who are these faceless people determined to destroy what we once stood for ? there are so many questions to what you say above,more questions than answers unfortunately,a lot of the problems arise through this materialistic age that we live in,instead of banding together the world appears to be always at loggerheads with one another,however I console myself in knowing that here within us are genuine people with like interests who can forget the egotistical world out there that has become a jungle,at least the world of the modeller holds no barriers,race or creed,I think that we could talk for hours Nigel about so many philosophical aspects of life.
