    I rolled over the Brum - Glasgow trip twice, and managed to cancel the hotels, but in the end had to request a refund as it became apparent it was highly unlikely ever to run. I never got wind of the footplate trips (or the credits come to...

    I understand your point of view @Sheff. Having had trips postponed, rescheduled then cancelled pre covid I'm a little hesitant myself. I see that there is a discount for Armed Forces members on this tour. Now as ex forces myself I don't...
