This is an image of the main Guardroom and entrance into the Workshop compound circa 1970. I along with my colleagues spent many nights on guard duty keeping the Workshop safe. I used to volunteer to stay up and allow others on guard to sleep through the night. This gesture was always appreciated by my comrades. I used to sit in a large overstuffed armchair with a little Jack Russel Terrrier lying asleep on my lap. I could then relax and doze off knowing if anybody approaced the guardroom like the Duty Officer I would be woken up immediately by the dog. I was never caught napping and I love Jack Russel Terriers ever since.
This was my first posting in February 1972. From the picture, the place looks exactly the same as 50 years ago
