dont be a gravel belly.

MORTARS is the way forward.

Hopefully they'll make PGAC harder to put off the phys biffs or the people who dont realise you'll get shouted at on basics.

WHen you are allowed out on the lash in BSE be carefull of all the mingers! they are hard to escape!

Enjoy basics, i only recently passed out so i know how tough it can be.

DOnt get caught falling asleep.

One piece of advice, dont do what loads of people do, turn upto PGAC complete it and think you have to stay at that level of fitness. You need to be fitter than the tests they have you do.

ALright lads?

just passed recruit phase, but i have a possible stress fracture so i need to get an x-ray on my foot. So will probrably get re-coursed however, passing out is all i want so if i have to wait longer then so be it.

I will be on that parade square in my No.1s

Hello all! first weekend back and i get drunk off 4 pints! Im on Meiktila Flt. just thought id give the wanna be rocks a bit of advice.
