hi jayb im sure dixie was from doncaster now you mention it and bert i remember charlie coy you bunch of hooligans only joking but you guys always seemed a bit rougher than the rest of us

 

Hi Craig,actually I was in 2 Tp,[must've hit wrong key]. Here's some names for you: Slug, George 'tash, Swamprat, John Clancy, Phil Mock, Mart Saunders, George Corner, Gaz Vitta etc. Bet they bring back a few memories?

Hi Paddy, not too far away. You still in touch with Phil and Leggy?

Just a quick one lads , Mucho respect for you Royals but you may get a bit more privacy in the PM facility on RR you can natter to your hearts content and exchange phone numbers etc etc . Do any of you remember Capt Alan Berry ? i know he was a coy commander that went down south with you blokes .Not too sure if he was 40 or 42 . Regards an ex-submariner now pongo .
