Just back in the forum as I have been extremely busy with moving, and returning from R&R from PV Mexico. Will be taking a hiatus from flying until 1August when I move into my new condo. I’ll be in the forum from time to time during May-July to keep in contact with all of my fine friends here in the HQ! Cheers for now! Deej

Gentlemen, In the absence of our illustrious leader, I would like to raise attention to a potential member who has long been overlooked as a candidate to our Barmy membership.

May I nominate JJJ65, commonly referred to as "Jara" among friends. There is no doubt that he holds all the necessary attributes and the makings of a fine BWOC member. Need I draw attention to his obsession with developing fine tools to add to the WOFF experience. Why it would appear, that he eats, sleeps and breathes WOFFiness 24/7. He is so obsessed with the perfection of the WOFF experience that he has little time to actually immerse himself in the flight experience.

Oh how could we have overlooked this chap. (besides, there has been a rather dry spell as of late and I for one think this a great opportunity to break into the BWOC bar to quench the thirst)

Let's put it to the vote, and hope that our leader drops in to pass the nomination.

BWOC, BWOC, BWOC!

Seconded. We need good mechanics. Let's keep them lubricated with alchohol!

Inform the barman that he should order more of, oh, everything.

How we've managed to miss adding Jara to our ranks in all this time is beyond me. A most resounding "AYE!" says I. Robert, the bat. Barkeep, drinks all around on our newest member's tab. And, if you would also top up my thermos of coffee with a bit of Tullamore Dew I'll be on my way. I'd loved to stay for the festivities but pressing matters at the HQ motor pool are requiring that I return posthaste. Welcome aboard Jara, you are now a member of questionable standing in this most illustrious and barmy group, as well you should be. BWOC BWOC BWOC!

Yes. Indeed yes! I’ll have whatever else is left.

Well, since there are no dissenters, and the mob of people at the bar have made it impossible for me to wet my whistle before the customary indoctrination speech, I will try my best to blather on.

Gather round and someone...PLEASE ...pass me a pint of the finest

Let it be known to all and sundry that Jara is now an illustrious member of our conspicuous band of brethren.

Would he who has possession of the bat begin the closing ceremonies.

Let me hear a resounding BWOC BWOC BWOC.

You may still manage to save a little in your wallet Jara, It seems that the deliveries to the bar have been somewhat lax in Lou's absence. That matter must be taken care of promptly!!

As always I’m late to the party. Why no one ever tells me about those things? All that’s left is Triple-J’s Java.
Congrats to the newest member. May the bruises on your butt from the cricket bat heal quickly.

Hello Lou/Gents

I have returned from obsecurity to said forum. It was a hectic time as I had sold my home to downsize as since my kids flew the coup a few years back there was no need to have all that room and subsequently am moving into a 2 bedroom condo 1 Aug. Had to vacate the home 1 May and find temp accommodations as new condo wasn’t ready until a/m date. Between part time work post retirement and dealing with some health issues-nothing too serious- kept me away for the past several weeks from the forum. Once set up in the new place will be on the forum as I was once was on a regular basis. My apologies for being scarce, but things became upside down and are back to normal! Cheers!

All the best

Deej

Oh, we know about upside down,Deej. That's how I fly half the time.

I hope you get settled quickly.

Count me in!

I do not own a complete period uniform, but I admit that I do possess a replica Blue Max, complete with ribbon.

But I do not ear it when I fly.

Although I might if I ever live to score 80!

Don't know how I missed this before, but yeah, I do believe I qualify. My own lack of grip on reality is compounded by the fact that I have the same addiction with WW2 Submarine simulations and with a WW1 and 2 (and Korea and modern) sim/game that I've played with friends on hobby shop game floors with model aeroplanes for the past forty years.

A friend of mine (now sadly gone) once told us that he was apparently talking in his sleep, because over breakfast the next morning his wife asked him "What does 'break left' mean?"

Now I don't want to overstep my privileges. I am only permitted to recommend new members. Deej or RAF_Louvert are, i believe, the officers who may bestow membership.

Hear, hear Sailor_Steve. Another one to pay my bar tab.
On another note, I was looking through the S.E.5 Owner's Workshop Manual today and showed my wife Albert Ball's ripping cake recipe in Appendix 3. She offered to make it. Can I submit her nomination as a honorary member? She doesn't need to know about it. She can tell B-17 from a B-29 and her favorite tank is a Merkava, because girls in Israel are allowed to drive it. Does she qualify?

Without knowing you or your wife I take a big risk, but she's probably not crazy enough. On the other hand, you can always fall back on the "Well, she married me" argument.
