He said: “It was just fantastic to connect and meet so many RAF veterans like myself. Bob lives in Scredington near Sleaford, and served in the RAF for 28 years as an aircraft engine fitter before later commissioning. “The support of the RAF Benevolent Fund is greatly appreciated and enables us to not only thank but also show our support to veterans within our community.”ħ7-year-old Bob Richards was one veteran who enjoyed the lunch.
Ian Whitehead, Community Development Officer, RAF Cranwell said: “It was an honour to welcome RAF veterans to our Christmas lunch at RAF Cranwell it is one of the most popular events in our calendar and was thoroughly enjoyed by the visiting veterans and our volunteer personnel. Spirits were high as the veterans were feeling extra festive. May continued with a loss away at Charlton and a 0-0 draw with AFC Wimbledon on the final day, setting up a play-off semi-final clash with Sunderland. The Imps raced into a 3-0 lead away from home, but a spirited fightback from Peterborough brought it back to 3-2 before a widely controversial penalty call gave Jonson Clarke-Harris a chance from the spot to secure promotion for Posh, which he took with open arms. Four wins and a draw from six league games kept feint hopes of a top two finish alive, and set up a huge clash with Peterborough at the start of May, in which Posh needed just a point to go up to the Championship. If March was a wobble, then April certainly steadied the ship. March saw City’s grip on automatic promotion loosen, as mixed results, including home losses to Fleetwood, Rochdale and Gillingham, and draws with Ipswich and Sunderland meant just five points from a possible 21 were collected. City shot stopper Alex Palmer with his Papa John’s Trophy Player of the Round award after starring in the win away at Hull City.
