[scientia in alto]

OK then boys and girls, say you were going to open a detachment bar somewhere; what were/are the most imaginative names you've found on your travels?

cheers all

SIA

[norvenmunky]

The Ming Inn.......................:ok:

[unclenelli]

Ali Al Salem Aircrew block was called "The Rag's Head"

[MikeTells]

Don't know about bars but the RAF Police Flight in MPA was located at Letsby Avenue.

[BEagle]

What about the gloriously non-PC:

Allahu Akh Bar

..that should upset the religious bigots - but which will, of course, be a totally C2H5OH-free zone?

Yeah, right.....:E

[HUDcripple]

Ahhh, who can forget the infamous "Auger Inn" in Texas... the best time I can't remember! :ouch:

HC

[artyhug]

The great 'Cock and Pullet' until it was deemed far too un PC, though it took the Septics a considerable amount of time to spot it....

[AlanM]

At MPA in the late 80's

The tels Engineers: "The Slip It Inn"
ATC - "Castaways" (not a great one really!!!) :)

The police were indeed at Letsby Avenue. Bless there lil white (or red) hats.

[Kiting for Boys]

"The Cockwell Inn" was proposed by a Scottish footballer

[4fitter]

The 'Cock & Pussy' medics bar and restaurant at Port Stanley early to mid 80s.

[I_stood_in_the_door]

'fifteen pints of lager inn the shortest time imaginable'

isitd

[Flytest]

Mahatma Cote..

[Tigger_Too]

Not new names, but what about the best bars in the world?

No. 1: Bar Ambiorix, Leuven

[althenick]

Culdrose Senior Rates mess - 'The Shy Talk Inn???' as I remember.

[Wycombe]

The muppets bar in Akronelli, The "Lash Inn"

[Always_broken_in_wilts]

"Lash Inn" would be more aptly named the "Inn Secure":E

all spelling mistakes are "df" alcohol induced

[Mobile Muppet]

ABIW,

Hey your bar could be named after you "The Anoy Inn"...

Only havin a "****-Inn" laugh before you go off on one again !

[seafuryfan]

RAF Stanley 82 - toilets on airfield rare.

Some bright spark took a single portaloo, built cladding around it until it was a brilliant lookalike to Dr Who's time machine, complete with flashing blue light.

Its name?

The Turdis

[paradigm shift]

Any where the Glorious RAF Harriers have operated
......THE HOVER INN

Gutersloh 4 (AC) Sqn Block

Incirlik (Tent City)

[Echo 5]

Flytest,

"Mahatma Cote.. "

Asian cloakroom attendant ?

[Cpl_Bilko]

'Plough Inn" along with tail fin on roof,

1417 Flt, C/D harrier hide, Belize 91'

[RADAR SCRATCHPAD]

The Banana Bar in Canal Strasse, Amsterdam was interesting :ok:

[Tilt&Gain]

Paradigm shift, I'm afraid when it got too hot for the Puffer Jet to operate in Incirlik the name was changed.....to an anagram:

The Horny Vine

[BEagle]

Except that everyone still called it 'The Hover'!

"Last Inn - First Outt?"

[12 PSI]

Isn't there a place near Faslane called Rhu, which has - you guessed it - "The Rhu Inn". I believe it has been for many sailors!

[Always_broken_in_wilts]

Not quite but almost a bar some of my finest memories, and definately some of the finest mamories I have ever seen, were in the "Swamp" in Belize:E

all spelling mistakes are "df" alcohol induced

[AdLib]

T&G,
and then re-named when the Jags took over. 'The Gay Zeebo' ... or something like that.

[sarboy w****r]

Newly opened JHF bar in Basra is called "The Camel's Toe"...

[SASless]

My all time favorite is Big Dick's Halfway Inn....I will try to find a photograph of the sign....it is for real ....honest!:ok:

[Mr C Hinecap]

Ahhhhh. The Talibar. Thumrait. Some good nights, some terrible nights, some great ones too.
I like the FBI near Boulmer. The sign looks far more exciting as FBI than the Fishing Boat Inn.

[sonicstomp]

Mr C H :

Yes, Talibar indeed - do you remember its previous incarnation the Foobar? (built by those fine Royal Engineer chappies).

I will never forget the '2 can rule' and the 30 min bar extensions ("I am the One and Only"!! :-) )

[Tigs2]

ALWAYS BROKEN IN WILTS

Now the Swamp in Belize, boy does that bring back some memories!! Remember whenever 22 reg guys came for a drink they never opened the door they blew it off with mini dets!!

[Always_broken_in_wilts]

Tigs,
I still maintain my funniest memory is of a certain crewman, ex scuffer now commisioned............no clues there then:ok: regailing the tale of how he was caught by Joyce the cleaner as he stood in between the wardrobe doors "sexually solo":rolleyes: Oh how we giggled:ok:

Those were by far the best days of my flying life so far......

all spelling mistakes are "df" alcohol induced

[Tigs2]

Always Broken

I think Joyce just carried on mopping the Pina Colada off the floor shaking her head and saying in her big deep mamma voice "oh you boys!"

[scientia in alto]

Does anyone know the fate of the legendary Lot 22 ... is it now Bar Z? Now that place was fun;)

SIA

[crazyivan]

not really a bar, but the crew room that was adopted near block101 akronelli during Telic was called 'Shack Chirac' a place to go and turn your back on the war.....

[Stitchbitch]

Anyone remember the 'whoppit inn'? 29(F), conners, 93.

[CatpainCaveman]

There's was also the Muff Inn down in Qatar last year.

I wonder if that had anything to do with the excess of blonde USAF ladies there at the time ....?
