    Michael, my father was in the Royal Air Force so I was very privileged to have had the opportunity to fly and live abroad at such a young age. My brother was only about eight months old when we left but slept most of the way ............

    Sounds like Graham might have been a Forces brat too!

    Ah! I understand now Rosie, Yes my dad was in the RAF also, his commanding officer was Guy Gibson so he spent a lot of time painting the Lancaster Bombers that were used to bomb the dams, other than that he was based in Egypt. I was based here in UK at that time!
