1. When stuck on New Year's Eve QRA at Wattisham, don't think it's a top idea to ring you oppos on Battle Flight at Wilders at midnight to wish them a Happy New Year......without first remembering the time zone difference!
'twas 'BK' who did it! And the response he got from Wildenrath was less than thankful...."It f*cking was an hour ago, you c***!" was the response from the other end of the Red Phone.
2. When the Staish has pinched your trip (again) and has taken his driver flying for a few hours in the Vickers FunBus, leaving his sun roof open and the keys in his pocket, don't try to be kind when the TEMPO1317 025CB 2000SHRA turns up on cue by taping some black polythene over the gap without first checking what type of sticky tape you've used....
"How the f*** do we get it off again", was MT flight's later query.
3. NEVER let a navigator drive the hire car!
