I believe FFE has made a valid point re the current attractiveness of women. I've just been into Town and my God there were some bloody awful looking females around. IMHO they don't seem to care about their appearance anymore. Mind you the blokes weren't much better. The majority of people dress in a slovenly manner these days.
I blame Matalan & Tescos et al

Ahh, how is the lovely Mrs Brakedwell?
I never praise you AIDU but that was one of your better responses

Aalborg..................................Did a detachment there in 19... don't ask, can't remember. The Danes were celebrating anniversary of their WWll Liberation at the time and they really knew how to show their appreciation.

JPA? No, that's all part of the new low-fat no-humour RAF Lite you seem to be embracing (rather than the cute Medic at ***)

From my experience based on a short service life of 6.5 yrs (cue the get some time in retorts) I found that in their early years the female members of the RAF were all rather cute and sexy, the good ones got themselves a pilot or an officer after sampling the regiment then the ones left seemed to let themselves go.

Equally, to not be accused of being sexist, many time served males also let themselves go as the effects of too many chips, no compulsory fitness and too much beer takes its toll and they usually can't pass a fitness test.

But hey where would we be without stereo types to create some good old banter with.

FFS, guys, lighten up! Let's face it, the mess is a much brighter place when there's some hot totty lining the bar. I like looking at attractive women when inebriated, and so do you, so stop pretending otherwise.

All the EO-awareness training in the world wil not make an ugly bird look attractive.

Wasn't there a Tristar announcement on the PA as it was once leaving the FI?

Something about the not so attractive ladies not being beautifull anymore.

Unfortunatelly OC Admin (a female) was onboard.

The old ones are the best ones......

But perhaps not in the context of the thread subject matter.
