Off to see dad shortly. Chum driving through to visit family near dad, so kindly offered me a ride, save limping on and off train. Sciatica pain much reduced, but still thankful for lift rather than public transport...
Belated Father's Day present for dad in form of new book on Barnes Wallis

On 16 December 1929, the His Majesty's Airship R100 conducted its first flight. Designed by Barnes Wallis, it later flew a successful trans-Atlantic journey and was photographed over the Canadian Bank of Commerce building in Toronto, which was the then-highest building in the British Empire. Wallis would later invent the bouncing bomb used by RAF Dambusters in 1943. #Trivia #BarnesWallis #HMAirshipR100 #TransAtlanticJourney #CanadianBankofCommerce #BritishEmpire #RAFDambusters #BouncingBomb
