But a few years ago, there was the sport of 'Donaldson baiting' in the RAF Club...

The Torygraph's Air Correspondent would be fed all manner of guff by a few mischievous folk from Adastral House after he'd bought them a few drinks.

You have to be careful though. One chap told an American reporter that he spent much of Gulf War 1 sitting around waiting for something to happen and "smoked a few fags" most days.... He had to explain to the horrified reporter that this didn't mean killing homosexuals!
