nunquam dormio

Dear learned folk, Can anyone translate for me? We found a badge at the
Beaulieu Jumble a number of years ago with this saying on it. It is also the
crest of the County of Warwickshire Royal Auxiliary Air Force and is quite
beautiful.....Its now planted on the badge bar of our SA Tickford which
itself is quite beautiful if I don't say so myself!!
I need something to get my mind off the horrible events of this past week.
The expressions of support from our overseas members is much appreciated here
in the good old USA.

Terry:
I have no answer for your badge question, but will let you know that Verna
and I are escaping the sorrow of this past week. We are booked on a flight
to the UK on Monday. We are going to enjoy the company of our English
cousins for the next two weeks.
Cheers:
Skip and Verna............................................

Here's a link to give you more information about the "I never sleep" badge
you have. Scroll down to the 605 Squadron paragraphs.

If I remember my high school latin, it roughly translates "I never sleep"

Have a safe trip. Take a brolly and drink some nice, warm Boddingtons.

Skip,
Does this mean partaking of the odd beverage with Mike Collingburn as was rumoured
to have happened Down-Under some years past?
