Mushrooms and Airfields.

Finningley 1975. 'Flaps' Picken (SATCO) loved his mushrooms. Every morning (in season) he would collect, cook and eat them for breakfast.

One day he was late and 'his' mushrooms had been picked and purloined by 'persons unknown'.

He promulgated, through Station Routine Orders, a ban on personnel picking mushrooms on 'his' airfield.

Three weeks later, a large, bulky transit envelope arrived in the internal mail. In it was a collection of three week old, very slimy, very smelly mushrooms together with a note that read "Here's your bloody mushrooms, hope you enjoy them".
