The QSO that sticks in my mind was back in 1971, I was at college with 
Cable and Wireless in Camborne, Cornwall and the main engineering 
college was at Porthcurno.  I was the social secretary for my group 
(about 30) and my job was to coordinate with the college to get a bus to 
take us to the monthly dance.  I had not been able to contact the 
college and was in qso with Paul, WB2OZW (SK) and mentioned this, he 
then told me that he had just qsoed with one of the guys at the college 
- he went off frequency, found him and brought him on my freq.  I could 
not hear the college guy, skip was too long but Paul could hear us both 
and he relayed the messages back and forward.

I had a number of qsos with Paul after that and he always had a chuckle 
at getting us to the dance!!
