discussion RAF Cosford nr. Telford, Nth Shropshire...Sunday 12th April.....

[Dave W]

Yes, that's it, on the walkway under the Vulcan Wing above the wrong café, which, for those not sure, is on the ground floor in Hanger 2. If you look up from the wrong café, you will just see the Vulcan bomber port wing where we will meet. That's not the café that's opposite Hanger 2. That café, which is the right one, stands on it's own, away from Hanger 2 across a tarmac road and doesn't have a Vulcan Bomber hanging from a nail, that one is in Hanger 2...So anyone waiting at the café in Hanger 2 has got the wrong Café...Go out of Hanger 2, turn right if you are at the exit between Hanger 2 and Hanger 3, and cross the tarmac road to the café where we will be at 12.00hrs.. If you go out of Hanger 2 at the other end (Facing Hanger 1) go out of the door turn left, then left again and go up a slight incline. The right café is to your right, right?
Best wishes,


Amy Johnson

I'm really confused now!

All straight forward Admiral, but I did forget to give directions from the various car parks so....


If you are in the main central car park, you need to get out of your car, head up the incline and the café is in front of you, however if you.....


Oh, hello nurse, Eccles Cakes! My favourite afternoon snack. The currents taste a bit funny, are you sure you haven't put someth....ZZZZZZ

Poor Ron! You gotta feel sorry for him the way his nurse keeps picking on him!


Dave - To clear up any confusion, look for the 'Cold War' hangar. Just about anyone you meet will know which one it is. Inside there you'll see a Vulcan bomber - impossible to miss 'cos it's HUGE! There's a walkway alongside it on the left as you face the front of the 'plane. That's where we meet up at 12:00.

Dont you mean right Dave? anyway just look out under the port wing for a good looking bunch of he -men .... then ask them if theyve seen us lot lurking about||

I thought so too, but don't say anything Tony, he might not bring his goody bag!

That's pretty easy to understand.Thanks Dave.

 

[spanner570]

my 'directions' although correct, were a gentle leg pull...honest.


Nah, the walkway is deffo. on the right as you look at the Vulcan from the front

I hope Tony was pulling the other leg 'cos he's a lorry driver by profession an' you'd think he oughta know his left from his right! Tee hee!

Well somebody had to clear things up! We couldn't leave it all to Ron and Tony - the Cosford Massive's answer to the Chuckle Brothers! Looking forward to meeting you there.
