2 great memories (amongst a whole lifetime of them):
A split brain Jnr Tech was posted onto my flight at Church Fenton sometime in 1980 and I soon decided he was commissioning material; coached him and put him up to Biggin Hill. I was so proud when eventually he made Wg Cdr.
And:
24 December 1984 2345 Hrs, my first (of 2) daughter was born in TPMH at Akrotiri.
25 December 1984 1000 Hrs AOC turns up and tickles No, 1 daughter (still got the photo).
1300 Hrs, Christmas lunch in TPMH maternity ward, chief anaesthetist (Wg Cdr) turns up in full operating theatre dress with face mask and carves turkey with a v large scalpel.
And now both daughters brighten my life every minute of every day.
