Piste said:6.00am at dawn service came home and sat down and did sod all for a while, beautiful day, sat out in the sun.
11.00am 8 mates from our old Sqdn roll up for a BBQ, reminisced on our time in Vietnam and what a pack of mongrels the RSL are.
Bastards put a massive dent in my old ale and I am in diabolical trouble as I will probably run out before the next batch is ready (do I resort to buying VB ).
I probably had a couple more than I should and suffering a little thismorning, I know some of them had a lot more and I know they will be suffering.
Will probably hear about it later today.
My FIL was in Galipolli and was one of the few who came back, died of shrapnel wounds in 1967 or thereabouts, never met him but he was 64 when my wife was born, bred them tough then.
Still have a passionate hate for the RSL the way we were treated in the 60's but I go to the service as a mark of respect for those who served, not the club.
