May have mentioned this one before yonks ago but what the heck.
HMS Fearless 1978/79 Dartmouth training ship a couple of hundred trainee Middies on board.
One day the OCRM (A Major ******* and my old Coy Commander in 40) did rounds with this Middy trailing along with him prior to the Captains rounds later in the same day. They come to the Heads above 38 mess, your's truely is stood to attention and tells the Major "ready for rounds Sir" Major walks into the heads and spots a bit of Brown stuff in one of the W.C's.
Whats that Mne Artist?" I look down, see the brown stuff and wipe it away with my finger and place finger in my mouth. Smack lips a few times and anounce "It's sh*t sir" Middy if seen to turn a funny colour. The Major then laughs and says "It's OK Snotty, tell him what it really is Mne Artist" I explain to the Middy that it's really just milk chocolate. The middy thinks it's a "Jolly Good Jape" and asks me if I could repeat the performance when the Captain does rounds and could the Middy do the finger bit?
I agree and everyone goes away happy. A few hours later Rounds proper start and once more the Middy is there but this time with the Captain. Captain has a good look and once more asks "Whats that Mne Artist?" Before I can move the Middy leaps in with his finger gets a good dollop and puts it in his mouth. His eyes opened wide, a terrible choking noise is heard and Lo the Middy heaves his guts up all over the W.C. Me and the Captain are not in range as the middy literally pushed me out of the way and the Captian had no intention of getting to close to the Brown stuff.
From down below can be heard the cries of laughter coming from 38 mess. The Captain looks at me trying not to laugh himself and says "Nice one Royal see you at my table in the morning" It was real S**T this time you see!
The OCRM gave me a bottle of summut nice for my efforts. as the Captain in the morning stopped my shore leave for one week effective immediately which was non to bad really as we docked one week later in the Grand harbour Valleta, Malta. It was the OCRM's idea in the first place anyway. Who says Pigs have no sense of humour!
