Some toiletries are extremely expensive in Thailand. I make a point of bringing in certain products, such as Gillette, as it saves a fortune against Thai prices. Grow a beard or not and go to a salon for a shave or trim. I am sure you can afford it. One of the great pleasures of Thailand. Yes better than Nana or Cowboy. |

In days gone by when duty necessitated it it I packed one of these along with its associated accoutrements. Did you ever do patrol in one of these?  |

Twin stromberg carbs, the best overdrive that I have ever used and acceleration which would not be out of place on today's roads. Absolutely brilliant car for its day and totally underrated. They were juice guzzlers though. |

All unmarked cars in S B but two's and blues fitted, some obo vehicles looked a right load of old tat too but the equipment and the fittings carried were totally up to date. Hardly ever wore a uniform either.
Had a delightful undercover surveillance job that ran for three months when two of us lived as dossers and panhandlers on the streets.
I assure you, three months of that and you don't smell of violets either and one became a home to assorted insect life too.
Good result though, busted a hostile group and they got served up some twenty years apiece as a result.

You can tell me, I was based at Hereford. Ask me what colour the boathouse is and I'll tell you, in a private setting obviously.  |

I realise we are both retired now but as your commanding officer I suggest you button it kiddo. |
