Re: ARRSE Poll 2009 - Serving / Retired etc
Sorry YIM, you're going to have to explain... You're becoming a mystery.
I posted this before you're answer above. I thought for a second you meant 'plod' or whatever its called 'over there' and I thought your blue is the colour link my be some rather robust police action stuff. Unfortunately not. It had something to do with wearing nylon and worshiping oligarchies.A DEAD STATESMAN
I could not dig: I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?

Re: ARRSE Poll 2009 - Serving / Retired etc
I still think there should be a button for ex Brats or those who married into service life.
My tenuous times in foreign shores and at boarding school at the state's expense must put me into some advertiser's category, even if it's only 'sponger off the state'.And this you can see is the bolt. The purpose of this
Is to open the breech, as you see. We can slide it
Rapidly backwards and forwards: we call this
Easing the spring. And rapidly backwards and forwards
The early bees are assaulting and fumbling the flowers:
They call it easing the Spring.
They call it easing the Spring: it is perfectly easy
If you have any strength in your thumb: like the bolt,
And the breech, and the cocking-piece, and the point of balance,
Which in our case we have not got; and the almond-blossom
Silent in all of the gardens and the bees going backwards and forwards,
For today we have naming of parts.
