It is raining and 10/10th overcast so the weather here lends itself to some leisure, browsing the latest catalogue from the RAF Museum in Hendon.
Years ago I bought a calender and some other stuff from them, and they faithfully send me a copy of their quarterly, so now I'm intrigued at several items in their inventory;
Wings; a BBC drama from 1977-78 set during WW1. Never heard about that one before, anyone know if it's any good?
Piece of Cake, I know about that one and was thinking of getting it.
Best of Commando; the comic series; I used to pack a suitcase full of them when going on summer holiday as a kid, anyone remember those, and where did my copies go??
Appointment in London w. Dirk Bogarde, can't remember if I've ever seen that.
A book called The Wicked Wit of Winston Churchill. Sounds like fun reading.
Among other items worth a mention are the usual caps, badges, socks, fleece jackets etc., all with the RAF logo prominently displayed.
I also must mention a book called Wartime Recipes, containing 40 wholesome recipes from WW2. Perhaps something to whet one's appetite, and gain new inspiration for home cooking?
Today at least I'm having a classic evening meal; Biksemad, what the Swedes call pyttipanna.
