Hello mate,

 

Fancy goin for a run tomorrow?? Gonna be pretty bored and fancy goin for that 8miler tomorrow. Got spare time. Also arn't you jealous of the boys out in the gulf? lol.

 

You see the article in the paper about them issuing the minime? They were usin it in afgan so why the fuss??? It's a sweet little close combat machine gun. 1, 000 per min with a 200 belt fed can.

 

Shame that most of our dead have been in accidents. Although they all seem to be doin a good job under tough circumstances.

 

What you been up to lately? Anyway mate speak to you later.

 

Come around tommorow (wednesday) for the 8 mile run mate, I'm only going on a 5 mile run today. The Royal Marines have been using the SAW for a while now, the Army should be receiving theirs soon aswell. Yup I feel all left out (got a few mates out there), I'm gonna miss this by a long way, ah well there will probably be another opportunity (Some African countries, N.Korea, etc).

 

Yeah shame about the accidents, [censored] happens, they loose quite a few soldiers due to accidents during peace time aswell, but we don't hear much about that.

aye the SAW is pretty damn sweet. Aye i'll see if one of the rents can give me a lift up to yours or something. I should be drivin by now, i really need to get my act together on that again.

 

a thing to sort today!!

 

the 8 miler sounds good to me!!

Righto I'll see you tommorow then. Eat and drink plenty before you come around, your going to need it.

aye will do mate. Same route as you pointed out last time?

Yup same route, should take us around 50mins.

if i don't die before that it will, lol. But i know you, you wont let me quit, which is a good thing so bring it on!!

Take your mobile with you, so you can get medivaced out.

do you think they will do a divert from the gulf?

No, but someone in a banged up Vauxhall Astra might come and retrieve you, can't guarantee you'll get back though.

LMFAO, i think i'll end up pushin that back don't you think?

LOL! Actually it'll probably be far worse than that, we'll have to carry half of the car each.

 

Oh yeah, near the end of the run we will be going past a pub, please try to ignore it.

i'll try but i can't promise anything, lol!!!

Well where are you then, ya numbty? I've been waiting since 0900!
