Thank you for serving the nation.

No problem.

I'd like to thank the Queen of England and her loyal subjects for paying the taxes that got me drunk all over the world.

[_JG_]

Long may she reign

You deserve it and i do not grudge a penny.....most in the forces were underpaid for many years....pension when you leave, upgrade at 50 or 55 if I remember right....all good.

All stand for the national anthem.

55 but I didn't behave well enough, lick enough arse, give enough of a **** or do long enough to get that little perk. I get my RAF pension (not much) in 3 years at which point I'll be claiming to be a pensioner and looking for reduced entry into football grounds if I'm still going to them I know others that claim to be pensioners when they're not.

Who’s the queen of England?

Queen Elizabeth II of England.

I was a bitter and twisted individual when I was in the RAF, I only did it because it was during Thatcher's reign and it was difficult to get skilled work but easy to get into a skilled trade in the RAF; it was never for me and there were thousands of us in the same boat serving at that time.

I still have nightmares about my time in the RAF and am still very bitter about some of the things I saw, heard and experienced from many, many (but not all) English servicemen of all ranks toward Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Black and Asian servicemen. This is one of the reasons I want Scotland to have nothing to do with England.

However, I still say that, career wise, getting out of the RAF was the best thing I've ever done - however joining in the first place was the second best.
