I wish you all a safe and happy one, and may Santa bring you a Wellington in the New Year
I thought of you guys when I was doing the last of my Xmas shopping today at the local supermarket and noticed for the first time that the road that it is on is called "Barnes Wallis Drive".
I live not far from Brooklands where the bouncing bomb was developed (a great museum if you ever get the chance to see it over here in the UK), and the supermarket is built on part of the old complex.
It always sort of reminds you that these were real men, and they did some pretty extraordinary things.
Cheers, Merry Xmas and a very Happy New Year
