I see 3 hooligans in that pic. A lot of those guys went to 2Tp in 73."We're surrounded on all sides... Good... you're obviously in the right place".Comment

well spotted Tone, for some reason I'm the only one not looking at the camera, must have spotted a bowl of trifle to the left.Originally posted by trubrit2411 View PostI have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.Comment

Re: 1 Troop 73 N.I.
it's from latest AEA journal Don, there's a bit of a write up says there are 4 hooligans, also says one in picture continued his service "at her majesty's pleasure", certainly not me.Originally posted by Don the Mod View PostI have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.Comment

Re: 1 Troop 73 N.I.
Taken after I left, but recognise some ugly mugs in that lot. Poor old Mick Pucky killed when a ferret turned over on Salisbury Plain, trapping the poor sod. Remember old Mick a few years earlier when he was courting some big waitress in the Crookham Crossroads cafe, mick was sitting with me and Gurney Fisher. When an old guy who was operating a stop,go sign for some roadworks popped in for his tea and sat at our table, the big girl served him, and when she went away the old boy said, feck me reminds me of a wart hog I saw in India. The look on Micks face was a treat to see, and we just burst out laughing, but never let on to the old boy what we were really laughing about ! As they say every picture tells a story! RIP Mick.Bob (geordie) WattsComment

Re: 1 Troop 73 N.I.
Obviously there was talk of me being commissioned but I said "no I want to stay with the lads and give them the benefit of my experience" that's just the kind of great bloke I am.I have always set myself a very low standard, and constantly fail to achieve it.Comment

Re: 1 Troop 73 N.I.
I was told Paddy Smythe reached WO2, bumped into him at Pam Fishers funeral. And found out after all these years that his first name was Bob, everybody else was surprised as he was always known as Paddy !

- Having taken into account the current COVID restrictions that currently apply in the different parts of the UK, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2021 reunion. The Chairman Nick Butler will be heading up the Fan at 0930 hrs on Saturday the 15th May and he will lay a BAFC wreath on behalf of the Club at the summit. He will also toast The Fallen. If other members wish to make their own pilgrimage up the Fan at their own risk please follow the relevant COVID restrictions that will be in place. As a Club we are not able to accept liability for members safety and well being over the weekend of 14/15 May. Our Clubs insurance that normally covers Fandance will not operate this year. Update to follow reference Aldershot 10 Miler on the 20th November 2021.
