When I lived at Willems park in Aldershot, there was a big fat cook next door to me. Talking one day he said, you wouldn't think I was a champion sprinter in boy service would you? I just said No!

Good to meet up with the lads all did Para. Graham took us around the area as he was ex Met Police. I though they where all squeaky clean until I heard some of his stories

A lot of discussion on the state of the country we had 3 ex majors there. They had to keep quite because officers are banned. Taff (John) Evans was nearly busted for a drop short in the impact area at Munsterlager he was safety officer, the number one Bernie Watters was find £400. From what Taff said the round landed in the impact area any way

Jack I can think of one or two areas where a few drop shorts might just improve the current situation mate!
