Fluffy.
My lad joined the R.E.M.E .at Arborfield and thence to Bordon. Both camps were in sh*t state as far as accommodation was concerned. When Lyneham was first mooted as the "Tri Service Tech Training" centre the first thing that happened was the R.E.M.E. binned both their bases like a shot and were in to Lyneham in short order. Since then the Navy has declined to move from HMS Sultan and the RAF have politely declined to leave Cosford so Lyneham is the spanking new R.E.M.E. headquarters. My lad has offered to show me round the new Corps museum. (RAF Officers Mess) I have invited him to procreate elsewhere.
Conversely I believe that Worthy Down was once the preserve of the Pay Corps so any visitors will be treated to the Victorian splendour of pongo standards.
