I didnt mind doing 12 weeks , I had a lovely girl friend there so I was courting every night and continued for a couple of years after, when on leave. She even phoned me at my Hotel at one of the Vindicatrix Reunions Half a Century later. I do have this effect on ladies, they never forget me.

ps, and it wasnt just for the maintenance.
