So yesterday we was in #amersham enjoying a wonder flyby by a spitfire. Millions of Brits will be able to watch the NHS Spitfire fly over the UK yesterday in tribute to the hard work of front line heroes. The blue Spitfire PL983 ‘L’ will be flown over hospitals around the country - emblazoned with the names of 80,000 NHS heroes, family members, neighbours and friends nominated by members of the public. A spokesman for The Aircraft Restoration Company said: "Saying and receiving a thank you is one of the simplest pleasures enjoyed by humankind, it takes the smallest of efforts but can carry vast meaning. "So, how could we give people an opportunity to join us in saying thank you to the NHS whilst also giving them the opportunity to thank someone closer to home… well, this is what we’ve come up with. Truely Amazing 👏 ❤💯💯 https://www.instagram.com/p/CDZzOYvnCu3/?igshid=1absjqfmimn84
