Hi there,
My stepfather was Captain (QM) at 200 Hovercraft Trials Squadron RCT at Gosport in the early ’70s.
Sadly Captain W.A.C.Tout is no longer with us however I have some stamp memorabilia (First Day Covers, Guernsey Hovercraft Postcards signed by pilots, etc) which may be of interest.
If so please contact me by email and I’ll be happy to tell you in detail everything I know and what I have, otherwise I’ll be selling it all on Ebay,
Best Regards
Rob Pearce

Bye from Slovenia
Hey fella,
good to see the site, its one of your neighbours from BCF, the southerners!
i got a cold as well
take care and see you next year, nice blog
Good God we AGREE about how disturbing the 70+ vile excuse for an OAP was (female? debatable). It’s kind of put us right off Sunrise and we don’t think we will go to that festival next year. Big Chill 09 here we come!! We are still not recovered. Rog went to Endorset this weekend and it rained and rained and rained which was a let down after the Big Warm Chill Dry festival. Love to you and Mel and apologies for my morning grumpiness but I definitely blame Diz!
I was looking for where your allegance lies on the topic of football but I see thing listed. Not a football fan, Ney?
Go Gunners!
Used to follow Leeds in the 70′s, but lost interest and discovered music and clubbing, much more fun, plus to many idiots on the terraces, suppose if I support anyone now it’d still be Leeds or Hull
Seems I recall Hull actually beating the Gunners
Oh snap. Drive the knife in a little deep why don’t you! Very up and down year for Arsenal I have to see. But have to love the fact that Hull is still pulling their own weight. You don’t see a promoted team keep pace with the big boys any more.
Oh and “idiots on the terraces”, you are right no idiots out at the clubs.
Well theres the odd idiot, but there usually just a little to fcuked up on something so are’nt to much bother at the end of the day, just sit them in a corner, give them a bottle of water and point there eyes at the pretty disco lights and there sorted
Hi Vince, Was wondering if any more notes had been added to the Hovercraft blog. My father was the last to write after a flurry of comments…is there perhaps something I may be missing with refreshing the page or the blog has just gone dead??
It was great to come across the blog completely by chance searching for my fathers name only to discover it along with some people I know also like Al Crawford and a couple of of other names I recognise from my very early childhood in singapore. Interestingly, (fore some) both my brother and I have asian wives and believe it stems from our time in Singapore when we spend the majority of our time with our alma (singapore chinese) house keeper.
Cheers for now from sunny New Zealand!!
Hi Doug, the Hovercraft post is still alive and active you can find it here
