Just before RH arrived on 72 Sqn at Aldergrove, one of the trainer's came into the crewroom with a list of new joiner's.
"You will never believe it, we have a guy coming called Rick Head"!
So, like you do, we got all the jests ready for his arrival.
RH arrives (I can still see him framed in the crewroom door) and announces loudly (always with RH!):
"Good morning gentlemen, my name is Richard Head".
"Also known as..............................." Reeling off every combination possible.
Happy Days!

1990, Princess Margret visits Shawbury. Dress rehearsal for the hangar walk thro, Tony N the staish wafts past the Wessex with attendant Instructors in growbags. JC one side RH on the other. JC's name badge reads 'I'm not a Dick Head', RH's reads, 'but I am'. TN spots it and the mayhem begins... As always this is passed on 2nd hand, but never let the truth..blah blah blah...
Same day her dress got a subtle hint of green courtesy of the role demo smoke grenades...
