Luckily for all of you, Dh hasn't yet reached the dizzy heights of Service Rugby refereeing at that level, so won't be asked to ref the match!

I worked with a nurse at Haslar who was affectionately known as the hospital bike cos everyone had had a ride

On a slightly ranting, feminist note. It did used annoy me when I was in the service that the blokes can still do all the shagging around they like, and are seen as lucky bastards because they are so successful at pulling.....but the women in the service are looked at askance if they have slept with more than one person!

Some things take a lonnnng time to change.

True, true. It could be worse. A friend of mine was a sales manager for BMW. There are virtually no female car sales people, so she was a real rarity. She was always on her own every Thursday afternoon, looking after the sales floor whilst all the salesmen disappeared off to the local high cloass brothel.

Lovely.

Needless to say, she left the industry at 30, having made enough money to buy her big house cash. She now works as a social worker!
