Last day at Swinderby, after the folks had been shown around we were told to trash the floor for the next lucky flight to take our place. Not quite coals at the double but very similar so yes Bit happy days when DI's really were god. My Cpl at swinderby signed a photograph Cpl Taylor, he really though that was his nameDT_Xtremez_30:
DT_Xtremez_30:Oh, the memories (in my case, Cosford 1960).
Tony Selby, on top of his form in one of the best comedies of the era.
In K9, we had our usual Staurday AM inspection, but it seemed curious that the Sergeant next door would wander though our room to talk to our very own Sgt 'Daddy' Prophet, leaving his boot marks all over our nice clean floor. Two or three times of this and we got the message and asked for it to stop.
It did - eventually - and he used to stop by the door and yell for our Sgt.
Crazy Days. . .

Him and the Sgt insisted we all had our Flight photygraphs signed by as many as possible of those on them. They reckoned when we got old we'd look back on them fondly. Hate to admit it they were right.

Ahh yes Swinderby memories…………..
Stepping off the bus from Newark and getting the first of many bollockings, 300 blokes having their heads shaved by a chain smoking barber who never cleaned his razor, watching in fear on our first parade as a 5’3” Cpl reduced a 6’3” bloke to tears, stripping off at the med centre to have 4 injections at once and then being sent on a 3 mile run, Saturday inspections, weekly pay parade with 700 other oinks to get seven quid, 24 man rooms, wrapping a blanket around the smallest bloke in the room and using him as a bumper as ours had been nicked by the room opposite, hairy Blues that rubbed the hairs of your legs, 5:30 AM reveille over the tannoy, being ordered to drop our trousers to make sure we were wearing 22B’s and not our own shreddies.
Ahh happy days….. were they FECK as like!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The day I left Swinderby the DI's informed us that we would have to leave the floors gleaming clean as they had CO's inspection the next day.
Sticks in my throat to this very day.

No bl**dy CO's on June 2nd 1980 then, as we had to get DMS boot marks off the ceiling in Gray block, on the 3rd.
Happy Days, well 28 years later maybe, just.
