As regards your last post, I presume you are referring to the Abbey, the Bluebell and that hotel in Woodhall Spa. Great places for the odd beer or seven and the bends in the road back to the MQs or the mess were always a problem for me. I remember Cat 5ing a certain Navs' Volvo estate after a few beers, in my Austin A55, which dates all of us......
Also remember a few weddings that went well there in the 70s.
Nothing better than driving in from the Sleaford direction and seeing a 4-ship or a pair on the break and then getting to the mess as they were taxiing past, prior to happy hour. Great days, as you said....
