Thanks to you, as a fortieth birthday treat to myself I headed up onto the High Peak to search for a B-29 Superfortress which crashed 70 years ago last month.
The weather was horrific.
But the crash site- far from the nearest road and respected by generations of visitors- was one of the most remarkable historic wrecks I've ever come across.
I cannot think of a better way to renew my passion for history into the next decade than to visit such a special site, one that I would never have heard of were it not for you. Thank you so much.
Then I hiked over to a Roman road which I took down to the nearest pub.
And then enjoyed some of the world's greatest and best cuisine.
Perfect day.
