yeah, not sure it was the best course of action, but can the Police be blamed for taking it seriously?

No humour at airports any more - When DT was asked if we had any sharp impliments he replied - 'Only the wifes tongue'

They weren't impressed =))

=))

In memory of a very dear friend - Mike Pearson

Very fond memories of Robbie Gilvary - DTs 1st Vulcan Captain who taught DT all he knew.
