Prince Andrew is a knob apparently..?
I bŁoody wish I could get out more right now! Had to work pretty well non-stop this month including trips to Europe every week.....off again next week as well. But hey, they pay - and biz class is rather nicer than one of Albert's canvas sling 'seats'!
No-one in my cellar, old bean.
And I remember the friendly gypsies who used to travel around near HMS Heron back in the 1950s, so less of the 'Fckin pikey', if you please - some of their relatives had been camp guests of the vile Third Reich and went up the crematoria chimneys.
Oh - and thanks to the FAA I had my first ever jet aircraft trip at the age of 15 in a Sea Vixen. So please NB that it was only banter!

Yes, perhaps I do miss the '10 life from the days before Kelvin Rucksack totally destroyed years of excellence - no doubt with Thrombo pulling his strings.
If you never came across those 2 d*ckheads, you're very lucky!
'Chasing Boris' in the '10 in the wee small hours in the 1980s was epic; flying increasingly unserviceable ageing old ac on the miserable, highly fatiguing route tasks written by Ar$ecoat Ops in the 2000s certainly wasn't! Nor do I miss it!
On the subject of trick-cyclists, an excellent talk from an aviation psychiatrist summed it up. "We treat people, the 'ologists' look at them and convince them they need it. Remember- 'L' is for 'Loonies who Look' - we're the chaps who help people to recover!"
Prince Andrew? A nice chap, I reckon!

ArkRoyal,
Certainly hope to make Sherborne this year. By the way, bumped into a Doris over Xmas in the exotic Far East who was also present in Raffles in '88. Being the social handgrenade that I am , in the preamble prior to realising her past you can rest assured the comment 'did ****** ever marry his BA wench?' was met with a firm 'No, because that was me!', from the lady in question, a puzzled look from her husband and barely suppressed guffaws from from the remaining crew at the table!!!More tea vicar?
