Callsigns during the 80's

[Hueymeister]

I had just spoken to East Midlands LARS and was busily wokkarring away through their zone in my mighty Wessex, when the ATC Supervisor came on, asked me my callsign, which the previous controller had done several times...'Err roger we are Swallow 69, out of Aldergrove enroute Mildenhall..blah,blah, blether etc...' the reply came 'roger Swallow callsign, turn right 90 degrees and exit the zone..good day'

I spoke to him later..and the Sqn 2i/c (now an Air Marshall) who really didn't see the funny side at all....still P*t M**ler got the bollocking !!!!
