on their first visit to the armoury.'Hello what's your name then and what would you like' I'm sure you'd get arrested for that today. Happy birthday you old sod. JONES 24.

U have to be a star to be a character in the battalion, the Likes of Jinks 38, Blondie, Ali, Irve Sam Moon Franky taylor - people we all know some rise to the top and others just leave fond memories as being special for what they where! We don't all make the Hall of fame but Jim is one of these so Happy birthday mate
