Baston - Photo 1 showing the delights of a Banyan I think you fish-heads called a jolly run ashore when it involved a nice tropical beach and a BBQ
.
Never had the pleasure when cruising Grey Funnel
but maybe I should have joined the FAA not the RAF.
I guess that these must be now a pretty rare event; do they still happen? Can't be very good use of the tax-payers' defence budget I suppose with 250+ matelots having fun on a beach with multi-million ££££ HMS ??? lying at anchor being used as a yacht!
