Somewhat off topic, but ALWAYS interesting; it was on Duck Hill in Ripon but doesn't seem to be there now.
I lived in the 'Steward's Flat' in then, 'Ripon City Club' round the corner on Waterskellgate. A truly brilliant bachelor pad.
There are a LOT of now very senior, or recently retired, officers (& v senior airline folk) who danced on my coffee table back in the day.
Including a VERY memorable visit from the police, as the fireworks launched from my window were landing in the Market Square (not big OR clever!).
To be fair, the cop who turned up at the door said; "oh, you again Sir. Could you ask your guests not to set the Market Square on fire please?"
Halcyon days - which are rightly no longer acceptable - indeed!
SOME of you on this forum were there!
