Oh, what happy memories this brought back! Workmen's weeklies!!

What a super lot of reminiscences, Alan. I could almost smell the Woodbines.

I spent 3 months serving His Majesty at RAF Kirton-in-Lindsey, and spent
several Wednesdays visiting the Infirmary in S****horpe to have a sprained
wrist checked. I had slipped on our highly polished barrack room floor:-)

Transport to and fro was by the recently acquired Enterprise and Silver Dawn
service, with some in Lincolnshire green and some in the original red
livery.

We also had a trip home for Christmas1951 in an Albion coach (not a Nimbus,
but a 4-cylinder beast with a full front and not much urge) which dropped me
at home about 4 a.m. I can't recall who operated it, but it was fairly local
to the top end of Lincolnshire.
