" And were in the final furlong, the runners are turning onto the SHQ straight, coming up fast from the rear is The Swo, the odds on favourite in this, the daily running of the Airman's chase...."

Right we are chaps ... here are the results
3rd Kiltrash with his entry ... where he clearly has experienced what the Maidstone night life is really like
2nd Fox3 with his entry ... which presumably is based on a bad experience at Coningsby in the 80's
1st ShyTorque with his entry ... which presumably is based on a particular terrifying personal experience
And clearly the vast majority of you have had too much experience with Premium Rate "entertainment"
Over to you Shy PM sent ...
Best ...

RAF Coningsby Commcen, 1988
"Right, lovely girls. Listen in. We're just about to turn on the machine. In a few minutes, your legs will turn the wrong way up, you'll gain three stones in weight, your voices will become very harsh and you then will be fully qualified WRAFs".

Britains got no talent auditions hit the RAF.
Coningsby was the largest AD base in 1988, and still had a plug-board commcen. It was marvellous for users as you could talk to a real person with a brain and local knowledge , but a nightmare to operate and maintain for the commcen and engineering staff .
Well Done Shy
