Matelots, hey
Most dangerous creature known to man is Jack armed with a darning needle
Grandad Jack`s name wasn`t Steptoe, by any chance
"Greater Love Hath No Man" than he who spends his kit upkeep allowance.........
On Kit
Good effort Grandad Jack
What did you iron those trousers with Jack, btw?
An iron Sgt,
An Iron you say! Good effort, Lofty. Next time, try plugging the bastard in
Now, be a good lad Jack. Double away and throw yourself in the tank and DON`T COME OUT TILL THOSE TROUSERS HAVE A CREASE IN THEM HAVE YOU CONSIDERED A CAREER IN THE ARMY, LAD?
Er, no Sarn`t
THEN I`D START NOW IF I WAS YOU
