Just found this thread and it makes me feel wanted....Ahhhh.
Just to let you know I have just purchased a DVD and have accumilated approx £200 of your English pounds worth of 'educational' material. Ol_ben, I know you'll be interested in that!
The scenery is soooo much better for 'filming' and am currently producing my latest release. The pimp mobile is on it's way out as I have moved on to DP scenarios which, as you can imagine would prove to be cramped to say the least. If you were present at the Jock Nag prior to my exile, you will know that we ran in to some 'production difficulties' due to some of my stars getting the wrong end of the stick and the main star having to break into his own house!!! You aint seen me, roight! Squared that one away (just!).
I feel right at home with the 'recce troop tashe' here now, I might even grow the old ****** back! Just need to purchase sandals and white socks. As you know my grasp of the language is fluent porn, ya fantastich, Ich comme, Ich comme, I seem to get by in the local with only a few odd looks.
To be honest, it's a bit of a culture shock. We went on something called exer..exersi....exercise the other week, which was nice! Das Frau sorted me out though and dug out my puttees, 37 webbing and a felt covered canteen. What's Cmbt 95?
Flying is OK, bit like falling off a bike (Duke 748 @ 90)...it hurts a lot and doesn't happen that often (like I give a sh!t, ATPL sorted! are you?). Gut bungee is about the same size as the Emerald toilet but with better weather so any one who decrys the NI mafia should try and experience IMC on gogs at 70' with nothing but the makers name on the clock, no IF option (25 mins of fuel, op compromise), bugg3r!(soft and squelchy Dave, I'm looking at you!).
To the RAF, if you have no idea of what I'm rambling on about, start with reading 'NI a Soldiers Story' you might get a rough idea for a useful CTR with that, then read 'Bandit Country' to complete (gives you useful grids and all that!!) and also allows you to speak in authority of 'having been there'. Oh, and then do three years on the ground just to get an idea of how Harry grunt feels when you don't show up cos 'the mets a bit iffy'. Ol_Ben, preytell privatley on the Wokka saga of last month. (Qualified, Degree in underwater soot juggling).
Its great here wearing green all day long (I have a green fleece and pants). Apart from that, I love it or should I say Ich liebe dich, Ich comme! A holiday is a holiday after all! And it's nice not getting debriefed on Pprune postings following a ropy IRT. That'll be me that will! Not seen much of him lately?
Thats all for now from the SASAI. (concerned a few so far!)
Murph, I have mailed you! Where's my boots?
Ol_ben, you need to get out more. Nuff said.
Get in touch @ the above mail and we'll chew the murphy stuff, sorry fat.
