"Semper ubi sub ubi"
on
A Weekend in Yorkshire
Dips - It started (late) with Champagne & "Dips" at the Shusters ...
Dick doing what he does best - organising booze! |
Chris - "I shouldn't have sniffed too hard when Shireen said smell the spicy peas?" |
We had a Ball - for it was then off to the Mess at Linton .....
|
The boys had a drink or two - then dinner with the girls.... |
|
|
followed by speeches! |
Afterwards the girls chatted up some of the young aircrew - Jill with Arthur (a rear gunner on Liberators) |
Brian was so impressed with the band, especially the pianist,
he decided to conduct it!
|
The dancing then got a bit wild.....
|
|
Finally the boys thought a bit of night flying might be in order, but couldn't get it push started - despite the thoughtful RAF painting an arrow on the aircraft to show which way to push it!
Then back to Raskelf for a Muslim Party - No booze and hide the women's faces....
|
|
... the ladies covered their faces (a big improvement) and the booze remained un opened! |
|
|

|
Above - a couple of muslim ladies with sealed bottles Right - "Nice legs shame about the face!" - and don't burn the flag now - I,m under it! |

A Day at the Seaside - Next day after a late start it was off to Whitby for fish & chips...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Right - Only in Yorkshire do people queue for Fish & Chips in a Cafe!!!! |
|
After their fish & chips the team were soon exploring the ups and downs of Whitby. |
|
|
