Had a brilliant evening at IWM Duxford last night, with Grub Street Publishing gurus John Davies and Anne Dolamore, talking to over 400 people on the Vulcan. Signed over 250 copies of 'V Force Boys' book.@adollamore @grubstreet

Today in Scotland I toured a submarine at HMNB Clyde, and met some of the fantastic military personnel who do so much to keep us safe. The brave men and women who serve in our Armed Forces truly represent the pinnacle of British character. 🇬🇧
