Uncle Arther
Hi,
I am a long time lurker and have Army service spanning 4 decades. I Joined the Guards in the 70s, it took me around 7 years to realized I could n't march and not wanting to face the Russian hordes in Germany decided to implement Operation ‘Yellow Streak’ and transferred to the RMP. I ended up in the SIB and left to join the civvy police and have just retired. I had a mid-life crisis late in life and joined the TA (not the RMP - they would n't have me) as I missed the dinner nights.
Like most ARSE subscribers, I have a PHD, MSc and BA(Hons) in Male Bovine Excrement and saw this site as an ideal forum to join like minded people for a bit of venting-off.sirbhp likes this.

Welcome.
It's a pity you did not post this in the NAAFI do you could receive some real abuse for being an ex-monkey !

Thanks Also to Bowmore_Assassin
As for been an ex-Monkey - I can cope with a bit of piss taking after all I am an ex-Monkey. The Civvy police was so PC, so for me, a bit of real honest to goodness piss taking is the tonic I need. - I think I shall be very happy here!!!!!
