Its a great idea.

Shame we can't do the same with a Britannia, Trident, Comet, 1-11 etc etc from all the money that is raised from lottery funding.

Hang on a minute we'd much rather have a sculpture of a large pebble put outside a theatre. Thats much nicer(!).... :-#

Yes but this is a means of getting it back for permanent grounding..

Those other types are already here.

Cammo paint job...50 feet under the radar.

It would be great to se one doing the circuit here

Unlike One-Elevens and Tridents the noise ban isn't really a issue.

But African being what it is....who knows?
