Samantha will allways be poised at our right hand, eh?:ok:

Smantha .... I always thought it was Pamela :p

Sadly, a similar problem afflicts us maintainers as the years go by. It's a year or two since I last wielded a spanner in anger, and a good few more since I wielded my first on XL392, a mighty Vulcan in the factory at St Athan.

30 years on at least I can still see real live aeroplanes out of my office window and on those days when it is freezing cold and wet thank the Lord for small mercies.

It becamw apparent to me when my students were younger than my daughter! (and still think she's young. Not yet 25)

I just realised I first flew when my current wife was 18 months old - and she moans she's getting old!

Sorry OKOC - worked for me when I posted.
Try this one for one of my "memories" !!

When the aroma of wee follows you around.

when you can't recall why you remember Samantha

Was that the same Major Warburton who was at Boscombe in 1963?

When you talk about what happened in the war and people say "which war?"

When you apply for and use:

a. National Bus Pass
b. Senior rail card

for the first time. Oh, And, bu**er me a young slip of a lass offered me her seat too!

(Maybe she fancied me) sighhhhh

Which 'seat'.......:E??

Nurse! More bromide needed, I fear.

Did someone mention grey hair? A pair of helicopter pilots in a Spit :ok:

When you remember getting half killed in the crush to look out the window of the tower during Farnborough airshow because Brian Trubshaw is in the carpark....and nobody knows who Brian Trubshaw is.....am I THAT old????:ooh::ooh::ooh:

When you can remember chasing women, but you can't remember why.

Nothing matters very much, most things don't matter at all.

When your students say "How long have you been flying, sir?" and the answer is "about twice as long as you've been on the planet".

When just about everyone I currently work with weren't born when I joined up....
