Hamish! Did you hear thon new wifie on Stornoway Coastguard?!

You want to hear the fearsome lass who works on Tees Port control. She has the Russian tanker captains pleading for a berthing slot like schoolboys who have lost their homework.
A local fisherman assured me that despite her Norah Batty VHF persona, she looks more like Sophia Loren. I'm not sure if he was pulling my leg or had been at sea too long.

Isn't it funny how the mental picture you have of someone that you have only heard on the phone or radio, bears absolutely no resemblance to the person, if you happen to meet them in the flesh.

Rightho, Sophia L now or back then? So your Fisker could be right either way.

BTW, didn't HMCG do a calender like that sought above a few years ago, or was it the RNLI- around the era of those WI etc nude calenders:o

YBW Forum Posters Nude Calendar for charity! You heard this terrifyingly bad idea here, first!!!!

I suspect that it would be a pogonophobiac's worst nightmare come true.

Indeed I recall a few years back a local Southern California ATC lady. She sounded gorgeous on the radio, made many a pilot melt and become confused when talking to her.

I met her once, she was a really nice lady but about 350lb and twice the age she sounded!

No one I flew with would believe me.
