Just had an idea Snappers - why don't you keep a diary? Not to sue the silly old sods but that well written biography will pay for your kids or grandkids University tuition, or your rest home or holidays or something like that ... good luck !!!!!!!!

Hi all, thanks for your lovely messages! They actually made me feel a bit better!
I am thinking of keeping a diary because I've kept an online one for eight years and writing helps me feel better about things, but I doubt anyone would want to read it! "Snappy's Gash Dits"!
I do take great satisfaction in knowing without any doubt that I could quite easily mutilate someone with just my thumb, so I will probably enjoy imagining that when people are going on at me!

Gerrin' the bilge!

was once on a train to London and a much younger woman came and sat next to me. In typical fashion she intruded into my space, ate food in an over elaborate manne, made loud calls on her phone, played music and was generally a right pain in the backside.
I say back closed my eyes and imagined having her bent over the seat in front of me and thrashing her hard with a cane. I imagined the feel of the cane, her bottom wriggling and her sobs and cries. After not very long I was able to sit there calmly and smile to myself without a care in the word.
What does this mean ??????? Is there something wrong with me ???????"If we don't try, we don't do. And if we don't do, why are we here on this Earth?"

It means I wouldn't want to be your sexual partner!

Nothing wrong with that at all GR - depends if you had a boner at the time as to whether Snappers could be wrong though !!

Cheeky sod! Wash out your mouth with carbolic soap and rinse it out with teepol then gargle some British Library leather dressing no.2 (helps preserve the dried out bindings of old books).

Congrats Snaps.
When it gets a bit grim remember why you joined.
Try to enjoy everything because it'll zoom by. Ignore the dinosaurs, they're just twisted and bitter because the Navy is changing (it HAS to) and their comfortable little world is receding into the past.
