Not a DIN tale , but a large car and a MetMan.

Pete T***d was a forecaster at Brueggen, and a member of the RAFVR Mobile Met Unit. He wangled a jolly or a FamFlight from Brueggen, and parked his car in SMetOs slot then buggered off for a fortnight.
The SMetO and staff took exception and bumped the Merc. over to the fenced instrument enclosure, removed 10 feet of immaculate white picket fence, put the car inside, replaced the fence, and waited for officer T***d to return.

Unfortunately CMetO was not invited to the fireworks on the return, so I cannot add any more.

A month later officer T***d had a sense of humour recovery.

Best briefer in RAFG.

RIP Pete.
