Well spotted Huntn,
Netheravon transit accom was never desireable, let alone comfortable enough to prepare for a journey of this magnitude.
I suppose the Mess at Wallop was full as usual. Has that place been refurbished/rebuilt yet?
I liked the "as usual they have not been idle.." bit of it.
They must have put something in the water at Dishforth
I once refused to stay in the transit at NV and ended up in a lovely place down in Amesbury. That was in the 90s days of SECOs, bring a sleeping bag and a star map!
Needless to say, I wasn't reimbursed, as accomodation WAS provided.
Then they built the concrete towers as they thought the place was being shut down, pity about the other facilities!
