Can anyone help?

I have just read this thread with great interest.

it is nice to hear from a true veteran.

I am involved with Sywell Aviation Museum in Northampton and I have been asked to arrange evening talks to our members and the public.

I see you are located here in the Uk and i was wondering if you might like to do an evening talk for us on your experiences. It would be very interesting to listen to your flying experiences and all about what happened.
