NutLoose, That was my introduction to the RAF in January 1963, Boy Entrant, RAF St Athan, no transport to meet us at Barry Railway Station, we got the bus as far as St Athan village, it couldn't get up the hill, then walked up the hill, with the snow at the side of the road above our heads.

"Woody Allen Jesus" sung for us by a hippy with loads of eye-makeup.
How boldy, daringly innovative as of late 2011 ... striking blows for freedom against the Christianist regime that oppresses the present-day English speaking world as of late 2011, umm-hmm. Very fresh.
What about a B-side follow-up tune, "Nail Woody Allen Jesus To a Wooden Cross"?
What we need -- and I'm serious -- is a more muscular and masculine form of Xtianity:
Tim Tebow and his faith - The Washington Post
Merry Christmas and In Hoc Signo Vinces!

Christmas is over - for those of us nutty enough to profess a faith in JC (and I ain't talking top gear ) it matters not as we celebrate a little every day.
What did Christmas Actually mean to me??
Well, I got three nice airfix kits and some trainset stuff - yep, as my wife tells me I am six. On the important side, one of these airfix kits is the Daddy - yup, I have the 1/24th mossie.
HEEEEEELLLLLP - and advice please, as I want to do it justice. PM me with wisdom.
I also have a hawk kit and some wafu variant of the harrier - FA2 or some such dribble. how long till WEBF comes on to tell me it the greatest kit of evah??
Just to gloat my trainset is coming on nicely too. oh, and sage advice for thise about to be booted out. Move your arse, most employers want committed grafters who will solve problems, make decisions and fix things.
don't waste time on bull**** bingo -
Have a good wee hogmaneey

I can't imagine civvy life will be any different, I can't imagine it will be any better, I can only see it being far, far, worse.
Maybe I'll become a gamekeeper. At least I can swan about with a loaded gun.

You need to come and work for me, long hours, **** pay, and the boss (me) is a right stroppy bastard. BUT I will back your decisions, let you make decisions and calls and not make you do anything I don't do myself.
I will mercilessly take the piss - I'm the boss and it's my trainset.
Private sector SME we need to make a product to make a profit, we need to make money, no time for bull**** and long meetings
I found the life outside to be far better than in, if you bring your natural integrity and can do attitude you will go far.

My engineers let me wind the clock up! I reckoned it was delicate and technical equipment so they must have held me in very high regard. The nose gunner was only allowed to repack and instal the brake-chute
