That's where you are wrong in my case I would love one in my own back

Let's just wait for a plane or two to demolish Slough
One did fall out of the sky a few years ago now over Slough if I am

Lancs and Cheshire have many, many
farmers who'd like nothing more than to sell a few hundred acres and

You think so did you not here about the big stink they all made when

Personally, I'd bung in a fiver for demolition of 'The Swamp'

A much better place WOULD be right in my " back yard" the BAC
establisment at Salmlesbury nr Preston about 5 miles away from me
and if I am not mistaken I think a 747 has been down on there once
soon after they went into service .
