Hello Benney,
As you will have worked out I was totaly innocent as you would expect, I like all good drummer's had all angles covered.
Regards,
Joe.
PS. Have you still got the C Coy sweat shirts I gave in Lemgo ?.

Hi Joe
talking about Benny I can remember coming back from the drummer one night worst for wear, and him taking his anger out on the weighing machine outside the chemist because he wouldn't beleive that he was that heavy, that was untill the RMPs turned up, he was trying to carry it back to camp the thing was it was chained up to the shop, the C coy sweat shirt you are on about wouldn't be the "who cares who wins" on the back would it ? I came across mine In my garage yesterday.

Club behind camp was the Mooltan Naafi and the disco was the Pussyfoot. Love playing soul all the time if I remember correctly, loved seing the plastic glasses bouncing off his disco.

Dai i thought you would have been in this disco often , Rumour has it you were a bit of a mover in those days lol

Hi Led,
I dont think I ever got to grips with Barry White and the likes, attraction was the Autumn Gold Cider at 10p a pint. If you had £1.50, you were well away. Pastime - throwing glasses (empty) at the pussyfoot disco and fighting the Queens Reg't.
Expect a PM shortly.

Hi Guvs,
The sweat shirts we had in C Coy in 1979 were very functional and bright red, Benny stood out at the best of times but when we were out on exercise benny stood like a sore thumb as his way of camming up was to wear his bright red shirt, I often thought at the time that he should have joined the Russians. ( I love you realy Benney).
Regards,
Joe.

No no - imagine a map of British Isles - Wales has a head (Anglesey) and arm (Lleyn peninsula) and a body.

The design had a riot helmet on Anglesey, and a baton at the end of the 'arm' hanging over NI.

The back of the shirt said something like 'Who cares who wins let's party'

The Ram was a dump BTW!
