Anyone fancy a pint?

I'll be in the Rose & Crown at 10 o'clock for last orders. Mine's a pint of Pride.

God, this forum's gone downhill.

Capt. Spunkfatrer down the pub, blimey things have changed since Bournemouth. I hope you are keeping up your reputation for having a couple of G and T's and falling all over the place. Liked your letter in the latest mag about subsidised flying, you are now evidently a man with too much time on your hands, you will never be the Chief Exec. with such demons inside you! Get a real job like area control and bring forward your heart attack by 10 years. Ciao, must do lunch soon .......

Cool Is Spunkfarter related to Barrymore ??

Since my "English Patient" screen name can't be accessible THANKS PRUNE...(not!!) A new era is dawning Pot Noodle the ultimate cuisine....and born is the Bombay Bad BOY !!! played by Mr Ralph Fiennes of course.

I recently went to a superstar studded presentation event where I was awarded the life time achievement award to the film industry, of which I was quite flattered ! Following in the foot steps of Captain Spunkfarter (last years winner).

In the background, Airport 2000 was played and it was at that point I couldnt help but notice the resemblence between the Captain and Barrymore !!!

Remove the Wig and reveal yourself Spunky !!!! We know whos in there !!!!

On a more ATC note.......... Have they been wild enough to give you a license to train others yet ???

Remember " BAW183, change of plan, hold position there and give way to the outbound company 777" means "oh **** I forgot about that one and had he turned the corner I'd be getting the tugs out " !!!

I'd love to come and join you for a drink Captain S but I'm not sure I could keep up with your scintillating level of conversation regarding the number of VORs and NDBs in the UK-so have a merry Xmas and hope someone buys you a life for it.
