It appears you kids can't remember Driffield
I remember Driffield John, but then I'm no kid. Did anyone mention Middleton St George? ...or Thornaby for that matter, I used to go to the BoB open days at Thornaby. Teesside doesn't count as civilisation these days, of course.
At least my Alma Mater (Halton) is still open - almost.
When I joined up there were more overseas bases* to be posted to than there are UK bases today. There were about 110,000 more of us to serve there though.
*Lots of them were sh*teholes mind...
