Here is me (bass!), in 1982 fresh from leaving the RAF (hence halfway hair) in a rather silly charity band called the Flopsy Bunnies(recently reformed after 25 years) performing in Chichester!

Nice one Trev ;) Dunno why but I'd presumed you left later than '82.. maybe it's because I did :lol:

Lovely shots Tony :thumbsup: The CB175 brought back a few memories.. never had one but it was 'there' when I had my Suzuki GT185N. Chopped that in in '78 for a brand new Suzi GS550D (I was cheap even then.. the D was the last wire-wheel version and I got a good discount for taking the last one off their hands.. the shop being full of the new 'E' version with alloys) ;)

The balloon brings back memories too. I did a Joint Services Adventure Training Course at RAF Weston-on-the-Green (Parachuting) and we all thought we were going to do our first jumps out of their balloon. We were stunned when a little Cessna landed and the instructor said.. ok, first 3 off you go! :-O It didn't look big enough to fly in let alone jump out of :lol:

Hi folks, there are two white faces in this shot, one of them is mine ;)

From 1998 -2000 I 'did' VSO (Voluntary Service Overseas) and worked as a vocational trainer employed by the Belize Department of Correction.

How often in a lifetime do you get the chance to go to prison in Central America ;) :lol:

I worked with 'yoof' at a separate facility from the main prison...i.e., borstal.....
