    SFA Damaged Carpets charge?

    Hi all, I'm just wondering if anyone on here has ever been charged for a living room carpet due to damage? Basically, the carpet in our living room is ancient, and DE have flat out refused to replace them at public expense, but wait for it.... They've told us that they've "lost the...

    Tattoos

    I had a tattoo before I joined the RAF, a small tattoo on my upper arm. I then had a tattoo done whilst I was in the RAF, again, just a small tattoo on my chest. You can't see any of my tattoos when I'm in uniform, however I've just gone and had another tattoo on my forearm which is very...

    TG4 TMT 1 Accommodation

    I did originally post this in the Cosford forum, but didn't get any takers, so I'm hoping to get some answers from anyone who's recently been on their TMT. What accommodation did the guys get allocated. I only ask this because every time I've been back to Cosford during my 10 years in the mob...

    IGS Friendly image hosting - help

    Does anyone know of any IGS friendly image hosting websites. The two I've tried are great but IGS blocks their urls. The reason they have to be IGS friendly is because I've just started a blog about the RAF Cycling Association and it would be nice for the guys involved to be able to see the...

    Paying of Compliments

    10 Years in

    My 10 year point is coming up soon, and I was just wondering whether you fellow e-goaters think it's anything to celebrate? I know plenty of you have been in much longer and some of you not as long, but is 10 years to be proud of or should it be treated as every other "year"?

    Uniform @ JMLC

    Right, I've just had my course date and I've been reading through the JIs on the Halton Intranet site. I've been down to stores to start exchanging my kit in slow time and they got a bit shirty (no pun intended) with me and have issued me with a "note" to give the instructor in case I get...

    Signing on for 22

    In 2005 when I signed up for 12 years I didn't get any re-engagement leave because "they don't do that anymore" even though I know people who have had it. But I've not long been promoted and after I've done all my courses to get my substansive rank will I get any sort of re-engagement leave or...

    The Omen got it wrong!?

    What if the Omen got it wrong? What if the apostle John read the sign of the beast upside down by accident and it is actually 999? Does that mean that the anti-christ will be born on Wednesday? 09/09/09

    Just had a SNCO posted into our section who helped design the CN4000 (new breed TG4 Trade Trg course) and now the new applied principles course.

    £10-12K Track/sports car

    Hardeep Singh Kohli

    Clicky Let me start by saying I have nothing against this person, I actually find his dry sense of humor very vunny. On to the matter at hand: He was on The One Show last night on BBC1, there was a segment about the top 5 books people "claim" to have read when they really haven't and the...

    Recovery of expenses question

    OK, here goes. Had a 3 year tour in Cyprus, and at the end of the tour they kick you out of your Married Quarter 4 days before your flight from Akrotiri back to Brize Norton. This means that they have to pay for you and your family to stay in a hotel locally for those 4 nights. Now like most...
