Bejewelled ocarina at the ready, Sir, (as soon as I've finished this caramel wafer!)

Ah, a secret Tunnock fan. The gentle rattle of the ocarina kept me conscious as i collapsed on the floor at the end.

Corporal poppypug (ents div), it was the trolley that kept me going. I don't think any one saw me gazing into the distance muttering 'follow the tartan trolley'. We've got to hide it from nanna at least until I graduate. You're doing sterling work keeping me going. Thanks.

You have good taste in tea. Does grandad keep pigeons in the shed? We don't want the smart tartan to get spoiled. A lot of scratch cards may be needed as I'm only on 8/1.

It's good to know you have a reliable batman or ADC. You choose the rank for him - base it on his tea and dodgers to his do I have to set the table in the mess tent ratio. The C-I-C.

The balloon will be out again tomorrow. Only for 28 minutes. Can you ignore it for that long?

I have a problem with this. It's now 6:15 Monday evening. So I didn't know to ignore it 'til too late. However, I have learned my lesson as one of the ranks called me a vandal so I am leaving well alone. I did notice that the heavy piano is making it a sitting target. ADC cleaning bow & arrows so if I have a relapse its still safe.

Not what you're looking for?
