Ancient Squipper,
Sorry for the delay in responding. On return from Akrotiri after the Coup and the Turkish invasion, I was not sent to Wattisham with 56, but enjoyed a 3 year holiday at Cranwell, home of the brave, and the trainee pilots. JP5 & 3s, and Morelands were to become my acquaintance, and I learned to play Bridge. With respect to Akrotiri, I was on holiday at six and a half mile beach (Kyrenia) when the coup happened, and we managed to drive back to Limassol the day before the Turks invaded. Their marines landed on six and a half mile beach ! Sometimes you get lucky, other times you get posted to Cranwell.
