kilwhang,
super pics. Thankfully never need to enter the portals of the hospital but we SNCO were invited to the OM at Xmas for a 'drink'. After more than one drink I remember one of our Navs opening his wallet and showing us some very risque pics of his wife.
I took a colleague home one year on his motorbike because he was too drunk to ride !
I had not ridden a motorbike for years and have no recollection of the journey.
The facts were related to me later by his less than impressed wife.
When the new SNCO Mess opened it was immediately declared substandard due to the low number of showers and toilets. I recall the food stals thet used to set up shop underneath it. On formal occaisions when we were all trussed up it was essential to get there early to bag a spot underneath one of the fans. No air con.
