    The Daily Mail.

    The Daily Mail. What a fear-mongering, paranoia fuelling, sh1t basket. I've just found this and haven't seen it before. The Mail's list of things that give you Cancer: AGE http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... ancer.html AIR POLLUTION http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/artic ...

    USAF BMI Standards.

    It occurred to me the other day that the RAF have taken it upon themselves to take "voluntary" BMI measurements from all those taking the Fatness test. The USAF guys already take this measurement as mandatory, and being beyond a certain size will see you out on your ear. I wonder how long it...

    Abolition of Boarding school Allowances

    Heard this happy little rumour doing the rounds today. Apparently, the current Boarding school allowances (Continuity of Education Allowances) are being reviewed, with the view to eventually scrapping them altogether. One of the reasons I was given, was that as now we have the option for "RAF No...

    What has been the worst decision of the last 10 years?

    Got to discussing how the RAF has changed over the last 10 years or so today and it soon became apparent that there has been a succesion of quite major changes forced through which have radically changed the life of everyone. They range from trade specific, to MoD wide and have all affected us...

    Have the Mods gone soft or what?

    Quite frankly I am disturbed and disgusted that no one has "interfered" with Gem's avatar in a Christmas themed manner so far. Have you all gone soft or what? It is traditional, at this festive time of year, to try and get the old cnut to have some sort of prolapse by sticking Santa hats and...

    Private Police forces

    I don't see the problem myself, if nothing else then at least they are a visual deterrent and a couple of extra witness' should it all go pear shaped. Private Police provoke concern

    Fast Trackers Stiffed?

    I have just been informed by one of my FTs that they won't be on their course next year as they were recently informed. Instead, due to a marked increase in JO recruitment, all Fast Trackers will have their courses suspended until at least 2011 to allow throughput of DE and JO applications...

    DE Fast Tracker.

    One of the lads I work with is one of the very last Fast Trackers to have been admitted. He is near the very end of the new "take a ticket" entry system to JATCC. At the entry rate at the moment its going to take 2-3 years for him to get on a course and he asked me what would be the consequences...

    Fitness test, always a pleasure.

    Nice to see the quality of WRAFs improving. The lass who administered our fitness test today was very easy on the eye and made for a surprisingly pleasant experience. For the first time, I'm looking forward to my next test. As well as going down a level there's the chance of a fit bird to help...

    Daniel Hannan - Some Home truths for Gordy

    One of the best bits about this brilliant attack on GB was watching the smug cnut squirm. Lifted directly from NightJack's Blog, I don't know who this guy is, but if I ever settle back down south again, he will be getting a vote from me. 94lW6Y4tBXs

    Self Assessed CCS

    Some pukka gen from a friendly rock. Apparently with the draw down of availability of Regt instructors at units, indivduals from Sqn's will be trained up to become CCS instructors and supplement the Rock units. Weapon Handling tests will still be primarily conducted under the watchful eye of a...

    Atsocas

    We've been prepping since just before Christmas and have the Trappers with us the week of the changeover. Personally, I think we'll be on AL1 within 3 months, and I've just ordered an extra saliva gland to cope with the new phraseology. Avoiding action beneath the RVC shouldn't be a paragraph...

    Does this remind you of any particular forum?
