Clucking Bell. Talk about thread creap! The only reason I started all of this was I was fairly sure the chap in question was RNR. I always maintained you would always be able to tell even with out the R in the curl.
Any way as this is all about caps now, that was only an aside in the original posting. I thought you might like to know I have just spent the day in a very sunny field on the Gloucester/Wiltshire border. There were hundreds of officers walking about and none of them were wearing caps or chip bags or any thing on their heads except Oakleys or Ray Banns ( the really smart ones had Serrengettis
) The one exception to the rule were the good old VR(T) officers of course. Caps to a man, and woman. Bless!
