So, I gather that in these days of excessive harmony et al that some of our finest are spending a week confined to barracks at Innsworth practising marching up and down the square for the RIAT Colours Parade. Not allowed off camp, even if living just down the road, and even a curfew imposed!
Have seen the joining instructions...it suggests packing a chess set or a pack of cards to while away those long hours of confinement!
Sorry, but did I just dream the turn of the millenium or are we really still living in the 1940s? Images of Tom, Dick & Harry spring to mind just so the guys and gals can pop out for a pint.
Still, nothing like a good parade to improve morale all round and boost some air rank's career.
