Leconfield in the mid 70's, practicing drill for an AOC's inspection. The SWO is not amused, someone is out of step, SWO pokes him in the stomach with his stick and says, 'Boy there's an idiot on the end of this stick'. 'Not at this end', came the reply.
When I was at Halton, we had a pipe band and a brass band. Marching back and forth between the blocks and schools, we passed the station commanders house, his daughter kept a horse at the bottom of the garden. When the pipe band played, nothing, the horse carried on eating. With the brass band playing, you found out it was a stallion! he became very excited, lets just say he was very impressive and outstanding.
Again at Halton, its sports afternoon, as we are marching to the playing fields we pass a very attractive WRAF officer. Some idiot shouts out 'Drop em blossom', we all thought we were in deep do do's, but all she did was raise an eyebrow, shake her head and smile. Oh for the day's before political correctness.
