From an earlier posting ; "This particular bit of buffoonery really came in during the early 70's when the Rock Apes' star was in the ascendant".
And talking of Rocks, a friend of mine was asked a question a few nights ago (I guess it was a pretty dull night conversation wise) about RAF Regiment stable belts in the late 60's or early 70's. The question posed was did the Regiment at that time have/ wear a blue stable belt with two white stripes on it???
Any body with a memory or the inclination to answer feel free to do so
