Thick Headed Bootnecks

I have just seen the Bootie on the tele who copped 4 rounds in his helmet.
Not a bloody scratch on him. Just goes to prove, that even in the 21st century, Royal still has a thick head.

Come back safely Royal

How the hell did I miss that when I have all 5 TVs covering different channels, and my eyes kept open with match-sticks!!!

He must be the Bootneck that resembles a Figure 11 target, good grouping!!

Royal always has been proud of his helmet and shows it off at every opportunity. Normally when p****d.

I remember an armourer(buggered if I can remember his name) who copped a round smack in the middle of his helmet at Springfield Rd nick it travelled round the side and popped out just before his lughole.There sure are some lucky sods around, knowing mine I would find a fiver but drop a tenner as I bent down to pick it up!

The Mrs was watching one of the news programmes today whilst I was out earning a crust! She said it showed the lads clearing a house and the camera crew were right there with them. this is what she said happened:
Sky announcer "and now we are going over to a live report with the troops of 42CDORM who are searching houses in Umm Qasar"
Testemony submitted by Mrs Blue:

"They kicked a door in and started clearing the house. One of the lads opened a door and said
"It looks like a store room... f**kin hell, it's full of chickens the dirty b*stards" he was seen walking out booting chickens in front of him disgusted and chuntering, "The dirty b*astards, chickens in the house, how crabby can they get, the filty...". Laughing could be heard coming from inside the house and I was wetting myself and they quickly cut to another story. They have not shown it in full again and I wish they would... you couldn't write comedy like that!

I tuned in to watch Royal's helmet get plugged and EVERY chuffing station was showing OUR 777 taxying around Edwards AFB. Is it any wonder Blair makes my blood boil? How much did that cost us, just so he could take his entourage of media luvvies to the states? Meanwhile half the poor sods in Iraq haven't got desert boots.

An' I'll tell you annuvver fing wot pisses me orft!
