    Oh yes,you need to know a bit about Army life
    as soon as the ,game stops,
    its back to BULL,when the shooting stops
    its back to BULL
    BULL,means ,your bed space is imaculate
    ,if it moves SALUTE IT,if does not, Move,paint it
    when i arrived in 1952,i was sent to my unit as a driver
    we were in a 12 man Tent,USA,style
    like the ones you see in Cowboy films
    i was surprised to see 11,hoe made beds
    and 1 broken scout type bed
    Yes,that was the one i had
    but i fitted ito it snugly,in my Sleeping bag
    we really did have a luxury type of life
    we even had a wooden floor
    now,while the war was on,
    it was never Tydy,it was just aTIP every day
    Now,comes the daring bit
    the War ends
    the Bull Starts
    the placed was tideid
    Inspected evry more by the officers
    the only odd thing was my Bed area
    the bed a foot smaller than the others
    some one suggested
    Hey Yorky,(ME)
    when you are curled up in your sleeping Bag we cant see you

    So i like a Sillly Willock i am

    Said,Reight,to morrow, i want you to rolll me upin my sleeping Bag
    and lets see if the officers Spot me
    Some of lads Dont be stupid
    But others ,There is always one
    Tucked me in my Bag,Rolled me up
    And waited for the Inspection
    Some of the had thier fingers crossed
    others were biting their nails
    THEN
    They could believe thier eyes
    when the officer said
    OK<CARRY ON


    Thats what i Say,
    Come on Barnsley
    Carry on WINNING next Season

    I feel fine,Back on SHANDIES
    got a new Yamaha K Board
    Look out Youtube

    thanks forreading

    Good to hear

    that you're doing ok.

    Sorry for the late reply, had to drop Kev off and then sort Laura out.

    She's still up and down but we're getting there.
