Once upon a time it was a Thor base, three launchers being sited on the old main runway. There were also two batteries of Bloodhounds to defend them. Like the Thor pads the Bloodhound...

The SIG had a good, if somewhat cramped day out at Hinckley on Sunday. Given we only had six feet and one chair (which on reflection sounds like a character in a Terry Pratchett novel) it is perhaps fortunate that both David Hart and 'Team T&E' - Tim and Emma - were away this year, presumably do...
