Strange Doings.

Smudjsmith,

"This Thread is still more rivetting than the books I'm reading currently...", you say.

Listen up, everybody, unless you've heard the tale already (and I was in RAF(G)' 60-'62, and I've never heard it before), you must read Chugalug's link ("The night 57 Squadron lost a Canberra") in his #3840 ! If Seville's story had been fiction, it would have been laughed to scorn. It's absolutely unbelievable !......D.

CoodaShooda,

Ballroom - now a disco in '79. Could it have been the Saltburn Spa ? (bit far from Leeming, but just possible).....D.

Chugalug,

Thank you for the lead to the funniest story I've read in years. How could he have got away with it for so long ? Talk about "Fred Karno's Army" - if those were our Security Services then, how on earth did we ever win the war ?

"A laissez-faire attitude from their wartime generation seniors ?" indeed. The W.G.S.s must have been brain-dead ! ......Please tell me it couldn't happen today.....D.

Thank you all for the kind words of encouragement, for dark days lay ahead for

Danny
