22nd February 2014



Hmm what's so special about today. Well nothing earth shattering. Only today is my first day as a civvy since I took the Queen's shilling in 1977. Six years in the regular army, twenty-two in the TA and thirty in the cops. EEK! (I've had to update my profile)



Well that does mean that for the moment (and rugger permitting) there is now time for some serious gaming. Huzza!

There is a major match on today and my little cupid friend sums it up quite nicely.




See you all soon in the blogsphere. Thanks for popping by.

ERIN GO BRAGH!!!!!

  11. I'm assuming that the 22 years in the TA and the 30 in the police were simultaneous. Otherwise I can't make the numbers match the date!

    Anyway, I hope you enjoy your new free time :-) .
