Many, many moons ago,in Cyprus, an increase in LOA was announced. One of our Sqn navs kept his spouse well out of touch with monetary matters. She went shopping in the NAAFI and overheard a couple of wives mentioning the LOA increase. Once at home she asked hubby, "What is this increase in LOA, I've just heard about, darling?" Quick as a flash, our hero replies, "Don't you worry your pretty little head about it, my love, I've already paid it" ..............
