The sight of the Queens flight yesterday flitting between Northolt and Aberdeen reminded me of a mates wife who was in the RAF and worked in Chequers and often on the Queens flight where she was the RAF equivalent of the cabin attendant.
During her initial training at RAF Lynham(?)....all the ranks of the WAAFS were on the womens section of the camp with it own parade ground.....the men were in the same camp but understandably seperated.
One morning in early training.....her flight of WAAFS were making huge mess of the marching drill
After dozens of attempts at getting the marching right and failing......the WAAF drill instructor called a halt and said.....
"Now listen up....there is a mile and a half of c**k in Lynham.....and if you lot dont improve your not going to see an inch of it"
