Many [many] moons ago, I was the Approach assistant at Brum. One of the APCAs duties was to make the tea. On this particular day, we had "visitors"..., so I had to make extra tea. As was the norm, I held the tray in my left hand/arm and picked up the cup for the u/t APC, saying
"Don't move John, your cuppa is here"....as I leant over, he spun round and said "What"? as his elbow collided with my tray... Twentytwo cups of tea were spilled. Over him , over the Radar , Radio panels and Telephone keyboards....
The most annoying thing was I had to make 22 cups of tea again
