Having just gotten back from 2 weeks on the motorbike riding around Britain, eating generally pretty badly and drinking enough to float a small ocean going liner, it got me thinking - I would never have gotten away with this if I were still in.
I used to remember guys in our section who would hit the NAAFI or Rugby Club as soon as they finished, whereby they would drink until they could drink no more, eat very little, and many of them were heavy smokers....
This was in the early 90s, before the RAFFT began to be used as a weapon of mass departure....so for all of you who are still in, how would you rate your lifestyle now? Has being in today's RAF meant that you are in the gym every night, with the odd pint of shandy on a Friday, or is there a hard core cadre of drinkers still in the Service..
Excuse me, while I just pop out for a mineral water.....
