Instead of putting them on benefits, perhaps they should be employed on filling in potholes and building sea defences to prevent coastal errosion !

That,s if tha cud gerram ta graft Bob, thiz moor work in a bottle o pop. Reckon only way wud be ta purram on a chain gang Yank style wi armed guards mekkin sure thi do the graft. Don,t think the Snowflake, woke mob wud agree! 😢 

Remember old Paul Newman in cool hand Luke. That was a good film.remember the bit where he ate 50 hard boiled eggs?

I did 20 in a competition in Bavaria, as Tommy Simpson mentioned on here many years ago. It started as 50 when someone saw the film, but was reduced to 20 in the fastest time when common sense and sobriety kicked in. Myself and a bloke called Bill Stanley and a fat REME bloke were the contestants and I won in 22 minutes with the others well behind. Followed it up with a couple of large cream choux buns and Tommy then 'forced' me to drink a 'Lantern' which was a litre stein of beer with a glass of red wine in the centre. Couldn't even think of attempting it now, but as a 19 yr old fit skinny wretch it was as nothing. Nobody would sleep in my room for days afterwards, can't think why! 🤣 

Tha cudda med a few bob Pat by hirin theesen out fer re renderin local gaffs! 😏 

Well done Pat, I remember sessions in far distant NAAFI's where the airborne ate and drank unmentionable things. Makes me cringe now but at the time every one never was ill.

Drinkin piss outa thi DBs ta christen em a favourite, in fact come ta think of it, am sure that,s wot med mi barnet gu curly. 🤔 

I remember The Damned performing at the Hyde Park nightclub in Osnabruck before they became famous, and they thought spitting into the crowd was clever till the lads came back with pint glasses of piss, shit and vomit and threw it at them. They refused to come back on stage and we were banned for life, but not before the glasses were passed around for everyone to drink from, standard behaviour in those days, but probably frowned on now. The Germans used to call our DB's 'piss boots', can't think why, and most discos used to check for piss boots before you could enter as we were banned from most! 😇 

🤪

Standard wear for 9 Sqn, desert wellies with para cord laces. Gurney fisher was invited to somebody's wedding and polished his desert wellies with black boot polish because he didn't have a pair of black shoes. Improvised! 🤣 

I insisted on all the lads attending my wedding in dessies jeans and sweatshirts regimental, although I was forced into a suit! Second time was just me and TLO at Gretna Green so I suited up again but with Reg tie as a compromise and we walked out to Ride Of The Valkyries of course!

Unlike mine were somebody pinched the wine I bought for the toast.

Years later found out it was my Granny who pinched it! 😄 

🤣

The Lord elps those who elp themselves! 🤪 

'But God help them who get caught helping themselves!'
