ASWM Cricket Days
Guess the early 80's are still "good old days" so I'll mention the cricket afternoons at Willy between RAAF ATC and SY FS.
Some (and some less than) memorable evenings after matches in the mess. The rules seemed to change each match and always involved beverage consumption.
I remember one night when a FS guy with a glass eye that seemed to change colour frequently showed us the ultimate "brown eye".
Another match, or was it the same one, when the Pitts display team was using the coastal lane southbound and was encouraged by Ms Lobb (the duty controller in the tower) to give a 5 minutes innings break entertainment. The major obstacle they faced were the stumps we left erected.
Yes - good old days.
Bit of thread drift but Masling was mentioned earlier. Regattas with a competition that was preceded by a night in Fame Cove for a BBQ and many beers. If you were there you'll not forget PY's "We Are Sailing'' rendition while trying to row a tethered dingy back the the RL28 for a sleep.
Yes - good old days.
