Thanks, Mackrick.

Home safe and sound!

btw: Anyone know the round-trip airmiles
to Volken and back? Also has to be a while
since she's covered that much territory!

I like to do my planning retroactively!

Okay, so that would be 250 nautical miles
orrrrrrrrrrrr....hmmmmmmmmmmmm......
Right around 290 statute miles, 580 round
trip!

Jersey was probably further, but this was
On the Continent!

Indeed, I was quite amazed that it was only 38 miles further to Volkel from my house than Cosford was! :-o
