A visit to the superb Bomber Command Centre Museum last week, a very foggy day!!

Apparently Lincoln Cathedral is in the background on a clear day ;)

A poignant and sobering place to visit to remind us all of sacrifices that were made.

Is there a museum at IBCC now?

Another place I have yet to visit. Hopefully next year I'll get there.

The exhibition is probably what he's referring to, which hasn't changed much if at all since opening.

The winter 'supper series' of talks they do are pretty interesting as are the summer event days.

But once you've seen the experience once there's not really any need to do it again.

That's correct reaper.

I couldn't even see anything in the Exhibition a few years ago. It was too dark. It was interesting though to see large copies of our crew's photos by the staircase.
