Moral of the story, LGSmith? Join the (superior) Royal Armoured Corps ;)
And if you're lucky enough, join as a Household Cavalryman!

am joining as a household Cavalryman and what the training like at bassingbourn

Good lad, better not be a scummy Life Guard though. Bassingbourn is good. It's shite while you're there, but looking back on it it wasn't that bad. 14 weeks of BS is worth it for the pass out parade at the end of it!

You can say that again. Bassingbourn is fun, crap, boring, long and quick

but yeh the final 2days is worth it. then you go home think about it all and laugh.

Now i am waiting to get beasted all over again
