Blue Lagoon at Keflavik with a full moon on a starry night with snow all around.

Then when we used to have about 8 weeks leave including grants and travelling time but we didn't have enough money to go anywhere.

All the fabulous things we could have bought in Singapore but . . .

The chaffing dishes in Tehran.

The money changer in the market in Nairobi.

The crowd in the Long Bar of the New Stanley in Nairobi

Eyeballing an RAFP SIB - he knew I knew who he was and he flashed a NO with his eyes.

Same bar, same time, ex-9 sqn copilot present now flying for East African.

Then there were the RAF SNCOs based at Eastleigh, on the town in No 5s. Nothing to do with two above of course
