No GA passes required for HA.  

However, a letter signed in triplicate from the cultural attache to the Court of King Caratacus comes in handy.
Also, please be aware that there is a strict dress code on HA, lounge suits by day and we ALWAYS dress for dinner.  Check at the gate for 'rig of the day'.  If the weather is above 25C, tropical uniform is the order of the day.

Houx Annexe ....... you know it makes sense.

Steve that is as offensive a posting as I've ever seen on any forum, let alone this one. A disgrace. You should be contrite beyond words. Don't let it happen again or you'll be punished with this:

Mike, in an  attempt to help keep the already high standards at HA may I invite you to share a sundowner on our veranda?

Dress is optional, some of our younger elements regrettably no longer dress for dinner whilst in HA, but of course the general genteel ambience is maintained.

Horsehair flywhisk is almost de rigeur of course, but sadly one is likely to have the pith taken out of the helmet...

Usually very little ice left for G&T, we mostly use it to keep the beer and pool cool!

Bill & Mike

It really does make good reading this expression of a time gone past, its almost like a Monty Python sketch or something out of Only Fools and Horses.

My Dad always told me G & T was a tarts drink, anyway that's what a tart told him during the war when his ship was in for refit during the war in New York ;D

Love to see you guys in black tie and a pith helmet, good mixture of day and evening attire, but never mind, the yobs on HA wouldn't spot the gaff.  Bit like afternoon snacks with a tarts drink I guess. ;D

Keep it up its a good wheeze, will be round with the nurse for  snifters if that's okay.  I'll see if the batman can sponge and press my tails for friday night.

"press my tails for friday night."

 :o

I'd been wondering about FS for a while, now we have it!

Are you "Der gabelschwanze teufel"? Mr Mephistopheles himself...

Wow, honoured to meet you sire, come around whenever, always welcome. But no wonder he has been sowing mischief, ha ha, caught you sire.

  ;)

But please, no helmet for evening wear.
We'd only take the pith.

As for tarts and G&T they are welcome too, but must bring their own G&T as we maintain a Wine and Ale bar generally, Kronenenbourg Lager a recent hot tip!(warm-ish anyway!)

Nurses always welcomed, must make room for the caring services don't you know? Dammit, bring the batman too we can provide a small libation for him too, below stairs with the staff.

Bill, I'm honoured, the P-38 is one of my all time favourite aircraft, how did you guess.  Always make a low pass over HA when visiting the EA Snake detachment in the squadron hack and will make sure Nurse FS is aboard.

Maybe a humanitarian drop should be scheduled for fresh ice, see what I can scrap off the leading edge.

All the best FS

Hmm, as long as it isn't scraped off the "pee tube drain"

 ;D

Always knew you were my sort of chap, but prefer the RR Avon powered Lightning to the old P38.

Just thinking this evening whilst walking the dog in Sutton Park, the old Avon was really the turbojet that defined the sixties wasn't it?
Almost everything in the air over Britain seems to have been powered by one version or t'other, if it didn't have propellers.

Hearing that Hunter at Kemble last autumn spooling up for takeoff, had to be an Avon even before I saw which airframe it was in. Lovely...

Anyway, you know where to find us when you deign to pay the Cobras a visit, see you there!

Bill,
This was also Avon powered.

Sitting behind that engine! Makes me shudder, but better to be away from any potential compressor blade failure  damage zone...
But wow!


Fran that's not a substitute, it's more an enhancement!

That would be some drive at Marham later this month, woo'ntit?
