Sadly i have none,they were all lost in a robbery from my bedsit just after i left the Army though i did look rather dashing in No 1 dress and spurs lol :) x

Izb1 profile image
Izb1 in reply to skischool

Oh! No they are your memories, do the regiment you were with not have any, surely somebody will have at least one x

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to Izb1

Irene my regiment or unit as it was, was rather clandestine and has long since been disbanded and we tended not to wear uniforms much but i still have my memories which will suffice though i might have a grubby pic of me in the junior leaders regiment when i first enrolled.? :) xx

Izb1 profile image
Izb1 in reply to skischool

I was with the 14/20th Kings Hussars and joined a web site after my ex died, they post old photos on a regular basis and am shocked to see myself sometimes on old army get togethers, you just dont know who has a photo of you x

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to Izb1

Irene,my unit was unrecognised and photos were forbidden,i understand what you are saying and there are many web sites and archives of my mother regiment but because i was seconded to the other unit i don't appear in them , :( x

Lemon7 profile image
Lemon7 in reply to skischool

A. How rotten to lose such mementos as those. Which regiment were you? My dad used to tell us hilarious tales of his time in the Royal Artillery. Think spike Milligan etc was in that regiment too. Seems the Royal Artillery and a sense of humour went hand in hand

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to Lemon7

Ironically i joined the junior leaders regiment RA as a wee laddie but moved on to various other regiments and units. but yes the Army does instill a certain sense of dark humour and Spike Milligan is an icon to me.:) x

Izb1 profile image

Yes me too x

in reply to skischool

Do I sense a wee bit of Scots there with the wee laddie. Haven't heard that said in a wee while. X Maz

My grandfather on my step mothers side was Scottish so that doesn't really count and my grandmother on my birth mothers side was Irish and dad was born in Canada so rather a long winded way of saying no lol :) x

Anita,i just remember the time my step mum knitted me one of those chunky jumpers that weighed more than i did and it's been lightweight woolens ever since. :) x

A former colleague at work said his mum knitted him a pair of swimming trunks, with a pocket: why a pocket I wonder cause the trunks would be at his knees with the weight OMG and LOL !!!!

My mum in law knitted school jumpers for all three boys, she must have got so sick of the regulation maroon wool!

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to Lyd12

As you know Iris money was tight in those days and a few balls of wool went a long way .our throw away generation could do well to learn from that but i doubt they ever will? x

Lyd12 profile image
Lyd12 in reply to skischool

True Skis, and outgrown or worn out at the elbows jumpers if hand knitted, could be undone and re knitted into something else. Remember well holding a skein of wool as my mother unpicked an old jumper, then the wool was washed to remove the crinkles, and all ready for the next jumper, don't encourage me to bore you with all my old memories!

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to majji

Bed,table?do you actually believe i am that civilised.i have managed for some time without and keep saying i will sort the issue out when i have sorted my lungs out but i doubt that time will ever come now,but i have the world's strongest gums. :)x

majji profile image
majji in reply to skischool

Now I am a tad confused, is it a bed, and a table, as well as teeth that you are without? I used to utter a retort about gums at the drop of the proverbial hat, however it is just a little too rude . . . . ;-) Also you must endeavor to live in hope re the lungs . . .

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to majji

Worry not dear majji i do in fact have both a bed and a table,correction Scruffy has my bed and table and i am occasionally allowed to use them and if i am good i get to use her teeth sometimes,i won't even enter into the dangerous realm of gums.:)

majji profile image
majji in reply to skischool

That is exceptionally good of the lovely Scruffy to allow you the somewhat limited use of her furniture - and more rarely her teeth - what a generous feline she is - very wise of you to avoid the pitfalls of gums - well done!

skischool profile image
skischool in reply to majji

Her ladyship is looking at me with disdain as i haven't put up and made her bed yet,in fact she has just registered a carpet protest with very sharp claws so i best get busy,. :) x

majji profile image

Obviously she is feeling somewhat neglected - indeed you had better make amends promptly SirSki - I am off to bed also - sweet dreams :-)
