Ray, worry not about licences, I have found that as we get older, the muse lays his feather light touch to your brow and all manner of Byronesque phrases invade your thoughts demanding to be committed to the Guestbook for the amusement and enrichment of all your followers. |

Sorry, fellers, but I didn't know my pieces were being deleted! I obviously must be more careful with my words. Also with names mentioned...so bite the bullet I will. Where do i apply for a poetic licence, so that I can get back into the swing of things? |

Now come on Ray, don't be taking umbrage because you spot was deleted. It has happened to us before and probably will again, you just have to use more poetically descriptive language when describing the more sensitive or is that sensual,antics of our former colleagues. As it goes, it is quite stimulating to the senses trying to come up with that which won't offend but adequately achieves the end descriptive result. |

Ray, I think that might be PRESTWICK Airport, Prestwich is where I was born, 4 miles north of Manchester. There is a blue plaque on the house where I as born, but sadly, no airport! |

Thats naughty Ray I knew the girl but did not want to name her, was Ivor on the same course as you, or was this much later, I never thought of Ivor of a very good Met man, a little untidy. |

Yes Ken it was Ivor Batey, he was at the School when I was Courting my ex, I am trying to think of who he looked like, That chap in Treasure Island, Ivor use to carry his Burberry around with him in all weathers, The wren was a Met Wren, I mmet him again at Admiralty where we use to have the office run ashore starting at the Chandos took the Bar Maid with us, My Wife Tricia was not impressed when we staggered in the very late hour, after that we stayed at Admiralty after the run. I met him again in Terror, not sure what Ship he was on . we spent our time in a building playing with a ball of paper, a bit like the old days at the school. Remembered who he looked like : Robert Newton, Heard he joined civvy Met. |

Johnny, I assume you mean Ivor Batey , Ivor was on course at RNSOM Culdrose when I was there and as I remember it, his then girlfriend, a Wren of what branch I know not, was extremely partial to many sessions per day working out with whatever equipment Ivor had. |
