Hi John

One storey about Spin Reid, was when I was in depot in 1961 Sly Sam MacKness who was 2i/c in depot, asked him if the Quarters were clean? Spin said "Yes Sir, they worked all night to bring them to standard". So Maj Mackness said "all right we'll see". He finally came to the washrooms when he asked if the toilets were clean and Spin said "Yes Sir". He then opened the door of one stall and there it was, a big brown ugly thing on the inside of the toilet! Maj Makness let out a sharp loud yell! What is that Sgt? Ole Spin took his index and wiped it off the toilet and rubbed it on his lips and said "Shit Sir". Apparently he was sick and tired of Maj Mackness giving him shit over the toilets so he went out and bought some Peanut Butter and put a glob on the toilet.

May he have a 90th Happy Birthday and many more, Pro Patria!!!
