Danger Plus ca change plus c'est la meme chose

SASless,

With punctuation apologies to French speakers!

At the risk of being accused of reminiscing while Rome (or more accurately Chanomi Creek) burns, you are right about Travel.

At least Viv and "The Black Sardine" didnt send you from Redhill to Kuala Trengganu via Reykyavik (unless the ticket was REALLY cheap and even then it was still usually Business Class! - - - I know the Oil Companies were charged for First!!)

Even greasing the wheels by leaving a carton of Duty Free Bensons next to the ashtray in Viv's office (those were the days!) would be a breach of modern day COBI.

A greater crisis has come to light in Warri in the last few days - the Prodeco Supermarket is fresh out of tonic water!!

When the brave chaps come back from dusting off their flak jackets and practicing NOE techniques, they can't even enjoy a decent Sundowner (at least 12 hours prior to their next scheduled flight of course!)

Do you have any reliable contacts in the ICRC who could arrange a Food (or Drink) parcel for the boys? I am hand carrying limited supplies back today.
