    Gorgeous day, so all the motivation I needed to walk out to our water supply.
    New memorial erected January this year to Belgian Pilot Officer Henri JP Delabastita, from 58 OTU in Grangemouth, killed when his Spitfire crashed here in 1943.
    The British Aviation Archaeological Council recovered the plane in 2000.
