You Are Dead To Me If...

Little Wing is a particular favourite. Shorts are fine in appropriate climates. Man make fire so barbecues are a uniquely male preserve.

A lovely bunch of coconuts

 

Varicosed? Not so much but a zip fastener both sides where they popped the new knee in!

 

Chas you can’t be a Marxist, surely...you’ve got a sense of humour

 

Why not? It’s not just Remainers ........ who have the most wonderful sense of humour.

 

What about the kilt then? I have an absolutely bloody huge varicose vein on the inside of my knee. looks like a map of the M8 but I still wear the kilt now and then though obviously not while in the saddle.
On the other hand I hate the way so many folks where those bleeding Bermuda short type cut off trews these days. Looks so bloody scruffy.

 

If you speak to me and start your sentence with "now, look..."

Prepare to eat your teeth.

Politicians, you have been warned.

Shorts... No!

Hendrix? Yes!

And, I wouldn't be the size I am if I couldn't cook....

And, you're a long standing woke wanker of this forum.

 

In my school all the big boys got to wear long trousers.

 

Is that the cast of "It aint half hot mum?"

 

There are so many speccy four eyes I suspect they are Desert Air Force ground crew.....

 

These are my standard questions to try and find whether you are likely to be mate material;

Bitter or Lager?
Football or Rugby?
Boobs or Bum?

 

They look far too smart and regimented for that, the pic below gives a better idea work and a brew

 

I agree the NAAFI mobile canteen is more typical of the breed but in no way diminishes their value!
That looks like a Mark V or later so probably post Alamein during the pursuit. My pic looks more like a garrison snap posed for the family from earlier or later in the campaign. Not sure many Army units wore side hats in the desert.

 

Aye and judging from the darker colour of the side hats they do look more like airforce

 

Could be anything really, RAOC, Royal Corps of Signals, Royal Kent Regiment to name just a few, the cap badge doesn't look RAF. The Corp looks like the typical hard wee bugger and he's got a darker shirt on, maybe Khaki?

 

Check on all of them ...so I do i get on your Christmas card list.

On the other hand my list of gripes is far too long these days.
