(Thought I’d posted this before, but can’t find it)

I was on one of the several Tankertrash Victor crews operating out of Loring and Goose during the Air Race.
I have to say that the Fishheads organised an absolutely cracking pi$$up for the RAF and RN participants afterwards in
the Inigo Jones Banqueting Hall in Whitehall ( where we ‘stole’ the Celebratory cake to take to the RAF Club- but were apprehended by the RN Police in Whitehall with no further action taken).
