Is there anyone on here from Widnes TA centre?
I live near the Warrington barracks(HQ apparently) and they've passed me over to Widnes as they take the recruits(more facilities for training one bloke said).
I'll be showing my face next tuesday.

Hicky ,
I am not from the Widnes TAC but am part of the same Regiment, you are being directed to Widnes as part of the Training /Recruitment plan for the Batt. as you will be trained up to be an Infanteer and as the previous post said HQ,s are "full of old men and Cripples " ay,ay, I am moving over to HQ soon
Any questions you have PM me and I will try to answer.

Ah but you see all us old crippled buggers were once the gazelles in front of every run, first in the galley queue and last back at night after a run ashore. So what happened?
Old age and treachery will overcome youth and skill.
