Basic training in 1991 at Swinderby was when I first took control of a buffer floor manual. I had to move it from one part of the room to another and was advised it was very heavy, so with all my might I picked it up by the very long handle and realised it wasnt that heavy as I had just banged the end of the handle through the ceiling. I yanked it back out of the ceiling and you can only imagine what landed on the freshly polished floor and how amused everyone was as it as close to morning inspection. Couldnt beat the electric ones though for who could stay on the longest.
