 Bish:

20 years as a GRUNT, back, knees, ankles, groin and wrists, and i am only 41. Think i need to go for a refit before long.

 Hope you don't need too many replacement  parts ......and your medical doesn't cap at anything  less than

  £ 6 million

 

Medical, as in Insurance i assume. That one thing i don't have to worry about with the good old NHS looking after us. But think i need to find an easy job when i get out, rest the bones a bit.

Glad to hear of the NHS.

Are you eligible to apply for Yoemen Warders, or would the standing and walking be too much for your knees?

I think my knees could cope. But you have to be a SNCO for that, and i am a 22 year Kingsman.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I'm starting to think that we need a section of this site just for us. It could be named the CODGER'S CORNER.

 

 

I resemble that remark! Reminder - try to never keep your CA and your denture cleaner in the same cupboard. Just sayin'... Embarrassed

Any Hints from Heloise for Field Marshals with wax lips?

Just asking.......

What's with the kayakers this year?? Are they skipping the last half of the class where they teach you how to roll back over?

hey.. i'm here to... lol.. medicaman is higher license level than me.. but I'm a licensed First Responder..!

 

oh.. BTW.  another kayaker failed ,,this weekend off Lamoine,, ( next town over from me.. ).. on a good note tho,,, a 18 month old ambulance service revived a toddler who fell into a well...was non responsive when they arrived..

so...

Yeah don't forget P38!! Man those kayakers aren't real smart. Great to hear that the other EMS service saved that toddler. Great job. It's always hard with kids.

Now where's my baseball glove?

  lol my scissors are lost somewhere... my trauma shears are in my med bag...,which i could smuggle many southern bourne personel in.....Whistling

The trauma bag in my truck is in desperate need of cleaning and restocking. I haven't used it in forever (not a bad thing I guess). I can never keep a pair of trauma shears for to long, as they always seem to disapear. That's why I don't buy those expensive stethascopes.
