Not really mess games but, following theme of other posts, dining-in nights at Colt in 72/73 were lively.

The evening that started with water pistols and water jugs at dinner and escalated to buckets and fire extinguishers post-dinner. Finally trumped by Stn Rock who arrived with borrowed fire truck to soak all players.

Very late in the evening, when most senior officers had departed, an Austin A35 was driven into the mess foyer and down the East corridor until it hit a central heating radiator. Much discussion about whether said senior officers would believe damage was caused by bicycle jousting. Team decision to own up and pay the, then, considerable bill for damage caused.

The game of 'catch the flaming tennis ball' in the newly refurbished bar, much to 'Gubbies' consternation.

Happy days.
