Chris Frost: I have to say that I'm immensely proud of the efforts that Middlewich people put in to events like this. Organising something like the Middlewich War Weekend and the other events is no small feat and it says a lot about the dedication of those who work so hard to make these things happen. Outstanding. Thank you!
Jim Moores: I would just like to express my appreciation to all those involved in organizing this and all the other festivals (FAB, Roman, Norman etc) that we are very lucky to have in Middlewich throughout the year. Thank you very much!

Wow, wow and wow again. To the hard workers who were responsible for planning and staging the event.... thank you. To all the people who took part and made it a success.... thank you.
To the weather, thank you for a great Saturday and most of Sunday.
To a great big band night at The Legion with The Wych Band, stompin' heaven!!!
And to all the venues in Middlewich putting on 40's entertainment...... Thank you.
Can we do it again? Soon....
Yesterday (Saturday 22nd) I was gardening in Middlewich. Hearing the sound of piston driven Merlin engines I looked up and saw the Spitfire banking a half mile North over the town. It was an exciting time as Id not seen a Spitfire since some thirty years previous. It's still an awesome aeroplane to behold.
