Hey Concrete!
Not all of us are from that end of the room, remember! (That said, I don't forget where I started out - REBROS will always be my spiritual home!
)
Driver 8 - put this lot out of their misery or else the Aberdeen PPRuNe outing team will be forced into full effect

URNo1 - I know, but you contributed before we hijacked it with a helpful, constructive contribution. Feel free to join in though. We are all in the same (sinking?) boat together.
10W - Myself, MonkeyBoy, Wat Tyler, Buzz, URNo1, Odi, DataDad and the late lamented Father Jack (may he continue to contribute from his new sandpit) all know who each other are. Driver8 WILL be outed, have no doubt. It is impossible to keep a secret here at Ice Station Zebra.
Hope you enjoy your visit. I'm sure a few of us will be working that day.

Never fear, Dad is here - albeit belatedly
Hijacking threads hey! childish behaviour indeed and unfitting for such esteemed professionals - but a jolly good wheeze 
Suppose it gives the inhabitants of waterworld something to do between "Roger**g" Echo Romeo
Oh sorry, that practice stopped some time ago
Buzz - last day of the cycle tomorrow - Heli Pilot to Trolley Dolley to ...... ? Maybe the sight of an ATCO out and about so early shocked them into forgetting the corners!
One things for sure..I'm diverting by an alternate route
If we are looking for members of FAST - I can nominate an Airline who forgot the clocks had gone back and arrived 1 hour before airport opened with 130 pax on board, causing much
Got to go and remove some more ice from the snowmobile....sorry, CAR!

I dunno... all you people who live so far away from work, no wonder you have trouble getting through the snow.
Anyway, as everyone else seems to have commented here I thought I'd better show my face.
How did we get from a wannabe in cornwall to discussing wx up north anyway? This thread really has been well and truly hi-jacked!

Just a quick question, is snow the only substance required to impeed onesway to become a member of AASS? Just curious.
I'm glad to see that nothing has changed.

For you mate I am sure we could set up an Overseas arm of the Association. Just remember the following:
1. I will need proof before issuing the certificate.
2. The journey should be made when it would be more sensible to stay safe indoors.
3. You must ensure that the weather conditions are such that you are unlikely to complete the journey after setting off.
4. For extra kudos the journey should be for a completely pointless reason.
5. Ideally you should be stuck for a period in excess of 6hrs, within spitting distance of home, in the company of a trucker. (That right Dad?)
Of course I will deal with each individual case on it's merits and award accordingly. But don't be surprised if you fail to gain membership to this elite band of intrepid ATCO's, but given your track record of getting lost when you had both map and compass, I feel a pass at least coming on!
How you managing to cope, I hear the beer is very expensive!!!

Ah ha. Thanks to Buzzlightyear for guiding me to this hidden thread set up by you ATCO bods at PD!
Well since I am not an ATCO I won't say very much and make a fool of myself however it is good to know that many of the voices at the other end of the R/T are also PPRuNers! My days of harassing you guys in little cessnas will be ending in a few weeks so if you receive a request for a C152 wanting to fly a few 'aerobatic procedures', then you know it will probably be me enjoying my last flight up north before I go and learn how to fly for a living!
All the best!
