Summer gaffe

Reminds me of a nav I knew in the middle east many moons ago. He told the tale of a summer ball at a Maritime station oop north. He was doing fairly well with the Wg Cdr A's daughter and had managed to enviegle her outside to the car park - ostensibly to cool off, but they finished up in his old Austin 7 or maybe a Mini.

Anyway the only way they could " assume the position" so to speak was to climb in the back with the front seats tilted forward.
Still not having enough room, he opened the driver's window and had one leg sticking out in the breeze. As the gyrations of the vehicle were reaching blast off point, he suddenly felt a hand shaking his external foot!

Naturally ardours were quickly cooled and there was much scrambling to look presentable. Only thing was, the phantom shaker had vanished. As he said afterwards " Somewhere out there there's someone who knew me and the bird concerned. I never ever found who he was though!
