There is only one film that anyone should be allowed to take:

ALIEN.

"In space no-one can hear you scream"

Perfect for those howling winter months down in the Death Star when you get lost for the umpteenth time.

If you were allowed a second...

ALIENS...

for the more light-hearted moments.

If you were allowed a third....

The Thing (colour version feat. Kurt Russell)

A perfectly balanced collection.

If that was the Ocean Safari one that took the Bucc boys from Lossie as well, I was there. 26 hours Elgin to Truro, stopping every time a scheduled handcart went past. Took all our ground equipment as well. Unfortunately the power sets had not been correctly chocked in their containers. When the door was opened, they all fell out on top of one another. Only one left serviceable.

Wasn't that also the same trip of the infamous home movie, where a stripper in one of the hotels went for afters?

Regards

Retard

engineer (retard) yup, that's the one. Day into night and all that. We were billeted in a hotel down town but fed on base. They were F*ng joking. Trog all the way to St Mawgan for and all the way back to the pubs.

We had breakfast in Woolies for £1.95 and Roast Beef and Yorkshire pudding, two spuds and two veg followed by Apple Pie and Cream for £3.95.

Got a bit monotonous having the same dinner for about 5 nights on a row but that was their fixed price menu. But the beek was superb as was the apple pie.

Can't remember a thing about the exercise but everything about the videos as we were also holding QRA at RS 60 for 24 hours at a time.
