That takes me back Jo. I did my driver training at Yeovil in late 1965 with what had by then become 6 Training Regiment, RCT. We were in Houndstone Camp and the WRAC girls were over the road in Lufton Camp. For a young bloke approaching 18 years of age, guard duty on Lufton Camp was a real eye-opener. No disrespect to the girls but some of them could have out-drank Rab C. Nesbitt and Jamesie Cotter. I was on patrol one night about 2 a.m. when I heard a noise outside one of the huts, it turned out to be a big hefty bird, well-oiled and throwing up and breaking wind at the same time. All she had on was an enormous pair of knickers that you could have made a sleeping bag out of!!. I thought about asking her if she was OK but decided against it in the interest of health and safety!!. Happy days.:D

:rolleyes::cool: a good story Hoot.
