Rolling 20.

That's how I remember my time in the UAS (Southampton).

It was the best social club going - we even had "grimmy" parties but, I suppose, they would be frowned upon nowadays.

Many of the chaps, no chappesses then, ended up with careers in aviation - not neccessarily the RAF.

How life has moved on, I doubt that, at age 16, you are allowed to keep your Lee Enfield .303 at home if you are in the school CCF nowadays.

Is there a CCF anymore?
