Yes it could, though I nicked that off an article which was suggesting she was in fact obsessed by Princess Diana. After her comments about not knowing anything about the Royal family, seemed a bit fake (to say the least!).

She is a snake.

Google just popped these up on my phone as 3 years ago today- was at Rockingham on a TD with a number of then TRC-ers, now RTTL-ers

Two of my favourite bikes in the foreground, and Weeksy trying Couchy's Africa twin for size by the look of it

Loaded with the aid of bloody minded stupidity, that's a 3.6m long trailer. It's not strapped down properly yet, that's just to stop the wind blowing it about.

Başınız sağolsun.

Did your dad forgo the promotion route to carry on flying? A friend of mine here in the village left the RAF as a Flt Lt after 30 years - I asked him if he'd come up through the ranks :lol: but it seems if you want to carry on as aircrew you give up promotion which would require you to fly a desk. It all comes good in the pension I believe when my mate will get the equivalent of a Gp Capt.

That'll be nice.

He took a non conventional route, he left the RAF in 1967 as Flt Lt - was an instructor on Britannias. did some commercial work then spent 70-79 flying in Oman where he headed up transport command for SOAF. When he came back to UK in 79, the RAF invited him back so he re-joined at age 55 and flew Hercules out of Lyneham for 3 years..
