Nothing is more wretched than the mind of a man conscious of guilt.

For shame, a leader who lets down the troops.

Drank sufficient tea to realise my state yesterday was due to the previous day's recce with future recruits and then failure of the navigator to put us onto correct track home in dark.

Day spent haggard, thinking how useful a batman would be and ignoring running kit.

Dishonour surely necessitates hara kiri but I don't think I'm strong enough.

Tut! We'll let you off just this once

I blame the biscuits. Ghengis Khan never conquered the world by sitting in his yurt with the teapot dunking gypsy creams. Get a grip man. Time to regroup

Now just one cotton pickin' minute, it wasn't me with the biscuits or ice cream. I'm trying to make it out of the clutches of the dastardly nhs, neither of those will help. Insubordination in the ranks will not be tolerated.

As I've just said to misswobble, I'm not the one eating the dodgers, especially not Poundland. Or the Carte d'Or. Shocking!

Oh, lor'! Have returned. Somewhat worried half-way through but quality platoon saw me through it. Well done, chaps!

I'm confused now. Are we are doing well when we don't run & so battling against the NHS trying making us fit or are we doing well running and battling against Nanna's jammie dodgers & getting fit? Owch, my head hurts. I'm going under the covers. (As opposed to undercover & not sure if this is battling the foe or giving in. Really depends on who we are fighting. What happens if I end up on the wrong side? What is the wrong side?)

Complicated, yes. Running to get fit and beat evil nhs on a number of battlefields. Have succeeded with five in the past year but there's no way I'm going to get the last one out of the way wiithout new strategies on the field of modern warfare. Thus, running has become essential to escape their clutches. It's poppypug who reckons she's seeing my nanna buying Jammie dodgers. None of them are making it to my house. I think they must be sharing them. Anyway, why is poppypug in the Jammie dodger aisle? So, doing well is running - to spite the nhs and show them that this guerrilla has spirit and will escape in the end.

Hah ! Now then Dozzer, I wasn't in the jammie dodger aisle , I was in the fat ball and bird seed aisle, your nanna was in the garden tools and accessories aisle buying a small trowel. She then proceeded to the jammie dodger aisle, where she purchased 4 packs of jammie dodgers and put them in her Roy Cropper stylee shopping bag. I think you had best have a word with that nanna of yours ha ha :-) xxxx

Oh thank goodness. So by running I'm on the right side. Never realised doing battle could feel so good on so many fronts. I am now proud to have been made a lieutenant (I was beginning to think it was very wrong). Don't suppose we could bring in conscription? No perhaps not - wouldn't feel so good. Sure shared jammie dodgers are fine.
