News VJ Day Celebrations Despite an afternoon of weather being better suited for ducks, the VJ Day celebrations proceeded without a hitch at the offices of Mayo Wynne Baxter and Henry Adams in Storrington. Staff donning 1940s attire mingled with clients including some ex-forces veterans. Music from that era was provided by the superb Amy Baker, though the show was stolen by Wing Commander John Bell MBE who shared many stories of his exploits during World War Two as part of the crew on a Lancaster Bomber. An amazing man, who on leaving was overheard telling me to “get a bloody haircut..!” Thank you sir… for everything!
