Busy day today coz we were off training with the Met Police launch… ooh better be on my best behaviour then - I don’t want to be arrested! We went for a 2 hour 30 minute training exercise with them… Oh it’s tiring work being in SAR. The police were great whizzing up and down in their launch - it was like James Bond! Mr winch man then had to be winched on and off the boat - oh I see what Nigel means now about them being mad! I had to be look-out and look out of the bubble window to help guide him down… left a bit… left a bit… left a bit more… oops! Sorry that’s the water, not the boat… hee hee hee!! They asked me if I wanted to go down on the winch… err hellooo… Do I look crazy? - No, don’t answer that - I must be mad to fly with Nigel and Debs After all that training it was back to Wattisham for our dinner… think I’ve earned it today Oh yes - thanks Met guys for my badge - it’s great, and the biggest of my collection!
