To attach a photo just go down from where you type in your reply, and there is a little thing called "Additional Options". You can attach photo's from their. Just make sure they are jpegs or other file extension recognised by the system.

My sister went for a drink with Tim Finn when he was single!
When did you leave the RAF. I tried to get in the RNZAF last year but didn't get picked up. I left the RAF the year before that.

Oh yeah, and I sang Band of Gold with Freda Payne when I was in Turkey on 4 July 99

I used to go and watch him 'make a noise' in the Drama studio!
Oh yeh, met John Otwa y at a party near Mandeville school, he seemed in a world of his own (nothing strange there then) he was in a resting period then after wild willy barret, or whatever his name was, and he had just featured on the Young Ones with Rick Mayall!

April this year, there is string on at the moment which is quite well subscribed to....RAF RNZAF transfers. I got the thumbs up for a Flight Sergeant job in May but it was too short notice for my wife because they wanted me to start on the 9th of October this year, so I told them to give it to the other bloke who was unsuccesful, so he is going now. Blow me if they havent just gone and offered me a job in April....they must like me or are incredibly short of Photogs!

Ahh I tracked you down on Friends reunited Grange school
shame we have that Grange school stigma 'I failed the 11+' It still haunts me but I've had a good career in childcare and teaching so can't complain. There are at least 4 people from The class of 72 in OZ and NZ. I went to the 50th anniversary of school opening a couple of yrs ago and all the class of 72 ended up at the Bricklayers arms with John Otway singing us a few songs too- great fun.
Re NZ could you use the NZAF to get to NZ then after a while do something else? Could you see it as a life style change rather than a move to make money?

ok i've had a couple of vodkas, but following example i went on friends reunited & discovered a boy i used to go out with at school emigrated to NZ in 86'. So i googled him his name is luke casey & he was a drummer with EYE TV (!) & the previous drummer for S.P.U.D, 7 Dials, The Nixons, Relaxomatic Project who has also toured and recorded for bands as diverse as Jordan Reyne, Grace, Sulata, Spargo, Second Child, Carly Binding, Bygone Era and Ted Clarke and most recently fronting his own band Tinpot Guruand , his uncle was the drummer in U.F.O.

I tell you it's scary what you can do on the internet. I've told my kids to be careful what they blog or put on forums because people can track you down!
If you are on a PTA, company website, football/soccer club, church etc they all put stuff onto the web. Just type in your username, that comes up too!
