Pah. :mad: So instead I suppose a Kosovan-lesbian-knitting group will get the funding.  I really dislike Britain sometimes......

It won't go through. The Vulcan is not an art gallery in London inaccessible to people north of Watford Gap.

Sometimes my hate for anything London based is entirely justified.

oops, didnt look at the date!  I found this:

Quote
No Vulcan Return for 2003

The National Lottery have refused a grant application by The Vulcan Operating Company, this would have enabled them to put a Vulcan back into the skies over the UK again. This decision has been met by disbelief from classic aircraft enthusiasts as it now seems likely the aircraft will not fly again, at least in the UK unless a benefactor is found.


here

so i just searched for it on google.

I think we should all send the National lottery numpties who decide these things letters of protest.  

Mine would consist of mainly *'s if cut & pasted to this board so I wont bother.
