Danny make that nine you missed my Indonesians!
They were Naval gentleman.With their white shirts and white gloves on parade at Kirton in Lindsey they resembled a flock of penguins with their far eastern style exaggerated arm movements. That was amusement, what was agony was living beneath the Iraqis with the constant wail of Arabic music.
At Thorney Island the Varsity staff pilots refused to fly with any pair of Iraqi students unsupervised. As a result I was lumbered one night with 8 hours babysitting.
