Here's some pretty faces from sometime long ago in the rec space. Everybody looks sober in this one so it must have been early. This is one of the only known pics of Buster Brown holding a can of coke and Huw Morris not holding a beer! Cheers


Is that Rich Bolland over Huw's shoulder. The one holding the plate of cocktail bits.?

I might just talk to the THUG and see if he wants to join in, cos I know where he is.


Ask him if he can still run as fast.

On one BFT at Deal we only had 1 PTI to do the timings. We completed the first part, turned, saw the swimming baths as a dot on the horizon and the PTI said "I`ll be back well before you lot....see you at the end"

Later in the drill shed when calling back the times for him to write down, the PTI came to Steve who had beaten the PTI home and said "Do you always run that fast??? Steve replied

"NAH...I WAS FU**ING ABOUT TODAY " :smt046

The chum behind Huw is, i believe, Andy Manley. One of the finest flute and sax players and drinkers the rmbs ever had.

Not sure of that? My wife was passing his restaurant about six years ago when she was working in Plymouth and Grints rushed out and started chatting to her.

So, from that, am I to believe the business didn't do well? In other words, it failed, it proved not to be a success, it didn't meet the combined expectations of two ex RMB's?
In other words..............

............it ceased to be. It passed on. The restaurant is no more. It expired and gone to meet its maker. This is a late business. Bereft of meals, it rests in peace. This is an ex- business.
