I just keep taking me tablets is all.

Heres one to get you thinking (Nought to do with Walts either but the PBI in WW1)

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=OZWTZiBbqQM

Met a fair few gentlemen over the years who stated that they "Did this, did that" only to see them OUTED by people who knew better.

Best one was about four or five years ago when we had a Military Forums meet at the Vine Inn, Nantwich. There we all were, about 30 odd serving and ex members of the forces, with attached ranks. All members of this site. Mostly we were ex RM, but with a few lads n lasses from the Army as well.

Into the public bar entered two blokes wearing Yank Football shirts looking like they had muscles on their muscles. They looked at us Herberts as if we were the lowest of the low (at the time the meet was well into it's latter stages so as you can well imagine the ale and other stuff had flowed freely!).

Well it seemed that they were members of the TA SAS..........Oh dear! :D Lets just say that they suddenly realised that the Vine Inn, Nantwich on that particular day was the last place they should have tried to show off in. To say they were "Sussed, sorted and then spat out sharpish" would be an understatement!" At least three members of our group had been there, got the T shirt and were of the frame of mind to make the two Eeijuts Squirm like you have never seen.

I've never seen em since. :D Kin W*nkers that they were! :evil:

Cracking song, whenever I'd had a few with the relations in Cork (the Fureys did a good version) we sang either that or this one....

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=GPFjToKuZQM

The fella can't sing but I think it makes you listen to the words more and he puts himself into it. At the end of the 'video' to this version is the tribute to the ANZAC troops on the memorial at Gallipoli by Kemal Ataturk:

Heroes who shed their blood and lost their lives! You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours. You, the mothers, who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well.

Jayne...Majorca!!......
As my old Sgt Major used to say "What a load of f*****g s**t" :bad-words:
Songs used to make him so angry :cry:

I lost a lot of respect for him that day but I think deep down it was a cry for help :wink:

Dave, glad you liked it. I wasn't a particular fan but the other one I remember from that album was "A Distant Relation"...worth checking out. Our grots were always reverberating to the Levellers in the early 90's :wink:

A song for Walts.

Argh! Christ almighty! What's going on here?
A stupid tart larking about in an overgrown back garden surrounded by Walts.
Poetry?
Insulting Cheshire!
OK, I'll join in. Put music to this one:

When all you shithouse poets die,
There'll be erected in the sky,
A monument of solid shit,
A tribute to your shitty wit.

(Copied from the tattoo found on Kipling's arse before they planted him).
'Beneath the Poppy Fields'
'The Assassins Code 1'
'Carabanchel'
'The Lone Brit on 13'
'Satan's Arena'

Before I joined up, I had a mate in my civvy job. He was a good bloke but had a penchant for 'gilding the lily' somewhat.

This song was popular at the time and became my 'pet' tune for him:

Well it was 1977!

Coincidence or supernatural occurence?
On Saturday I was singing the Israelites by Desmond Dekker, and my daughter asked about it, so I told her I would find it on Youtube! Spooky!

A mate of mine got back from a tour of poppyland last year, and he was on leave in a pub and saw this bloke chatting up some girls (or trying to.) He ignored him for a bit but had to step in when the guy seriously started spinning the lies about how he was in the para's and just got back and blah blah.

My mate went over and introduced himself as a soldier in the RM's and asked where he had served. The bloke gave a few answers but none of them matched up. By this time the ladies realised this guy was bullshitting and moved on.

Then the guy started having a got at my mate, saying he had ruined his fun.

My mates short but meaningful reply made the guy leave shortly after.

I really hate walters. They piss me off. :bad-words:
