has been around for most of the year
thats ok, what I'm querying is the garbage that appears in the newslink I checked out.. ie "ydydyydydydydydydydyydydydyydydydydyydydyyddd"

I assume that they have a little bit of a data problem in their archives..

No it's sheep language..compulsory for anyone on selection to learn don't you know.
Doing strange things with ewes is a very secretive part of the training..don't tell anyone I told you though ok? :-?

I did selection for 23 in 82/83, I had to leave the program four days early family crisis to deal with, I only had the T Q phase to do. The regiment kindly allowed me to join the next selection at week one. I was 28 at the time, I stayed for 10 years after 1 year on selection so would you. If you want to give it a go work hard endure and do your best if you have the right stuff the training team will notice they won,t tell you but they will notice. I had 6 years in para reg before that so had basic soldiering pretty much coverd made no differance on the training everyone is treated the same civillian or serving in another T A reg or ex regular like me. The standard is so high that only the very best and most determind make it GOD knows how I sneaked in,but as I did you might.
The Brecon Becons still stand Pen-y Fan is still a pain it makes no differance jnr, snr, selection, it stays with you ............
