Good news at last for the family of sir Donald Cambell

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cumbria/6228503.stm

seems the lottey can fund some real dire projects but cant fund a piece of British History

H

£750,000 for an extension??? :shock: They must be using those new gold plated breeze blocks :lol:
That would deffo be worth a visit when they complete it 8)

About time nice one

This is great news.

Malcolm and Donald Cambell have always been heroes of mine.

But there's something about Donald and the K7 that always makes the hairs on my neck stand up everytime I see or hear anything about them, its really strange.

I was almost in tears when they found/recovered Donald and the Boat in 2001

Apart from the rejections of the lottery fund, what annoys me is that this doesn't rate higher in the news... instead we have features on some manufactured wannabe Z-lister chasing a bit of skirt in a house with a load of cameras in. :roll:

Yet another piece of British history that would otherwise be lost if it weren't for the dedication of a few people.

well said K

:winner:

Totally agree there K - yet if you look at some of the highest rated news articles on the BBC news site its always proper news and no some scandal nonsense :roll:

I hope it all works out as I would love to go and see it! :)

Well said.

How no museums wanted it defies logic.....

How damn cool will that be.

I have seen Gina Campbell race powerboats, and she does not hang about!

Nice one K
