Hello again,more old clippings,Cheers Bubbs,

Does anybody know what became of the Godfrey Davis D series ?
I would imagine it was a one way trip and they were left in Katmandu.

I seem to remember that they did the round trip.

Prior to that the D-series below had done Afghanistan and back.

Hiya,
Well Marc, you’re doing a sterling job putting all the deleted stuff back on,
since the start of Scrapbook Memories it has been a reference library for
me and I noticed stuff which I knew was there had vanished when I wanted
to look something up, I know it must be a lot of work for you but it is and
will always be appreciated, Thanks Mate.
thanks harry, long retired.

[bubbleman]

Hello again,Very kind comments from Harry…luckily as I originally posted the cuttings I stuck the ones I used into a folder so I could check for a double post,I randomly pick out a few so it doesn’t take long to repost,Cheers Bubbs,
