Lumitabs are orange tabs worn by nods in foundation, it lets them get away with not saluting officers and making the odd mistakes around CTC. Once you lose the lumitabs you should know how to handle yourself :oops: around base :wink:

Thats awsome news, as i will be training through the winter with the Paras. NOT, i don't like the cold as it is. :P
Suppose it will only help make me a better soldier in winter conditions.
Get on "PARADE"

It's getting pretty close boys...And there seems to be a correlation with the temperature as well. As the days go by the temperture is decreases, weird sh!t that :roll: .

I've just bought myself a TEFAL 550 Turbo Pro, 2400 watts, 100g steam shot, 300ml tank, Ceramic Ultra glide teardrop shaped plate. Down from £55 to £39.99. A class iron. I never thought I'd hear myself say this, but, I quite enjoy ironing. Which is a good thing as I'm going to be ironing 5-6 hours a day....Can't wait....

I was wondering if anyone knew what happened to you if you didn't do very well in the first gym test when you start basic, as I've been ill the last week and a half and I'm doubting my fitness. I can probably pull it out of the bag, but I wouldn't mind if someone could reasure me. And before anyone says "search for it you c*nt", my computer connection is a joke, it's currently downloading at less than 1kb per second and took me 15 minutes to check my Personal messages. So no I wont. But any info would be appreciated. Cheers
