Why does Pat have 5 stars and is Reputable, while I only have 3 stars and am Trusted but not Reputable?

Meanwhile i'm merely registered.

How the f.ck you are classed as trusted after your last visit to the NAAFI is a mystery Steve!!!

Currently sitting somewhere out on Dartmoor at a farm with alpacas which TLO has demanded she has to feed tomorrow morning at 9 despite my stated plan to leave at 7. Heading into darkest Cornwall tomorrow before curling up towards Brecon.

Made it to Penzance after spending nearly an hour waiting for her to feed alpacas pigs sheep donkeys lambs rabbits and guinea pigs. Worse than taking a child on hols! Heading back north east in the morning into Somerset,probably stop near Taunton before calling in on Charlie on friday morning then the final leg to Brecon!

Pat, When you were at the RSME Brompton Bks, did you ever go to the United Services Pub at Gillingham. They used to do pints of scrumpy at tenpence a pint mate I'm talking old pound shilling and pence money here!

No I never got in there Bob,but spent half my time in Tidworth in the 'Scrumpy House' as the Anchor & Hope in Salisbury was known locally quaffing the stuff by the gallon. In the summer there used to be ants in the barrel and we'd complain if there weren't at least 10 in every pint! I'd probably fall down on 2 pints of the stuff nowadays and didn't get tempted at all while wandering around Taunton today!

Brilliant night as usual in Brecon last night,meeting a few blokes I hadn't seen for 40 yrs or so. Proudest moment of the night? When Tommy Simpson nudged me and asked "Ere Pat,are you bangin' that blonde?" "Yes Tom,in fact she's my current wife!" Magic,could only happen in Brecon!
