Oh no!

Oh yes!

Not the...not the The Beast! *trembles

dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

Oh Treemouse, it's worse than that.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Worse than that! Crikey, do you have a backup plan? Do you want me to bring reinforcements?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

Amongst others we need Han, Westly, Fezzik, Theoden, Miracle Max, Inigo Montoya, Aragorn and the whole left flank of the Rohirrim. Please.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Yes Sir! I know the location of Aragorn, he was on the couch with us last night, hence the mess, Sir. I will set off with him at once at round up the others. Fezzik's size will give us the advantage. I will report back ASAP.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

No space for me but space for Aragorn who needs a cut and blow dry. Or is that why you had the foam rollers out.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Sorry Sir! We were practising manoeuvres and discussing tactics. The foam rollers...the foam rollers have got me into trouble, Sir.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

You're right, they have.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

I am on my way now to get those reinforcements and redeem myself. I will not rest until I have delivered Han, Westley and the others to your command.

Running66Graduate in reply to Treemouse

You are too late they've already left for Newquay to do some foam rolling.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to Running66

No, that was a plan to foil the enemy.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

Ah. Misunderstood - conserving energy for tomorrow.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Running66

Newquay! Where are all the troops? How many of you have been running toady?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

Everyone, is Treemouse sufficiently reliable to give a rank?

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

I have supported all of your personnel on various campaigns and come highly recommended. My sniping skills are second to none and I can lob a teabag in the bin from a distance of twenty feet.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

Would that be physical or verbal sniping? The teabag ability will be very useful to the cause.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Physical obviously. I can beat anyone to last minute bargain on eBay and pretty good with a rifle to boot.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

I reckon unless there are any objections we have a new member - NCO Treemouse.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Thank you Sir. You won't regret it.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Treemouse

Good-oh. Promotions may be up for grabs next week when I graduate.

She's pretty good with the Shake an Vac and her Pledge-spraying skills are legendary!

Captain Waletta, do you vote yay or nay?

waletta profile image
walettaGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Oh! Am I late? Really bad head. I don't think it had anything to do with last night's coach party. Not sure what I'm supposed to be voting on yet. I'll keep reading & get back to you.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to waletta

I was told it was a couch party not a coach one. Where did you go?

waletta profile image
walettaGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Stop picking on me. I told you I have a headache. It was a couch party, complete with malteasers (probably the reason for the bad head). Still can't follow this thread but I'm up for whatever the troops vote for.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to waletta

Voting in new troops. We'll say yes then.

waletta profile image
walettaGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Yes. Is Beek joining?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to waletta

At your request she's in now, NCO Beek.

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to AncientMum

Thank you AM. I am a stickler for doing the Shake 'n Vac wiggle at the same time; it is the only way to put the freshness back.

Think it's more a case of what you know! Is the Commander's tent next to the latrine?

Treemouse profile image
TreemouseGraduate in reply to Running66

Nor me!

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Running66

Excuse me, I'll not have scurrilous talk like that, especially from a soldier, not officer. You get to be an officer when you graduate. I have been asked why I get to be Commander-in-Chief if I've not graduated.

Prisoner Zero has escaped.

(ad infinitum)

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to MarkyD

Oh yes. And the Pink Czar has legged it at the same time.

OMG! Dont' panic! Don't panic!

Would we do a thing like that?

Im confused!!

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to catkin69

No, no. Don't let them work their way into your mind. The only way is down after that. We must stay alert and overcome our wicked foe.

Running66 profile image
Running66Graduate

Confused! So am I. Thought this was a running forum. Lol

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to Running66

A running forum, maybe. We use the term loosely to keep our foe unaware of progress made against their system. Gradually we will overcome their strategies and policies until eventually they buckle under the power of our joint forces, wha ha ha ha ha!

spoonierunning profile image

Good morning what's up?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to spoonierunning

What's up? Prisoner Zero has escaped and the Pink Czar has legged it with him.

spoonierunning profile image
spoonierunningGraduate in reply to dozzer19

No one spotted on my skirmish this morning. Have they been caught yet? Was it an inside job? Do we have a spy amongst the ranks?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to spoonierunning

Unless MarkyD is an enemy stooge we have no spies. Resting up for 9/1 tomorrow! Aargh!

AncientMum profile image
AncientMumGraduate in reply to dozzer19

9/1 eh! You can do it Sir! Auntie Nellie, you know her, from Back Inkerman Street, she said she saw it in the tea leaves. She said you're going to nail it - or was that you'rer going to fail it? No, it was definitely nail it. She saw a hammer and some tin tacks. Course she might have been hinting that she wanted you to fix her stair rods ;)

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to AncientMum

Tah! Aragorn and his fancy hair-do can sort those out. I'll take Inigo and Eowyn instead.

AncientMum profile image
AncientMumGraduate

Morning Sir. Managed to drag myself off the injury couch. Gonna have to go back in a minute and mop up all the split Dandelion and Burdock and crumbs. Things got a bit messy when the talk got round to foam rollers! Who's escaped and did they pinch the tartan trolley?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to AncientMum

Zero and the Czar legged it in the night. I'm off down B&Q and Jessops for equipment to fool the latter. Zero being out is good news though.

PS Foam rollers? What strange parties you have.

MarkyD profile image
MarkyDGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Hey Dozzer, consult the one-time pad we shared. "Foam Roller" is just a codename. It's in the chapter Weapons of Mass Distraction.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to MarkyD

Ah, yes, I can imagine the troops on the injury couch being seriously distracted. They need to get back to the matter in hand. Never mind hair styles. They've graduated. They don't see matters in quite the same way. How close to enemy lines are you?

MarkyD profile image
MarkyDGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Ssh, don't let on. I'm 500yds _behind_ enemy lines on covert manoeuvres. Putting my famous stealth to good use. KK007 and I are going to massacar (ha!) the Orcs.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to MarkyD

Pleased to hear such endeavours and intent rather than tales of Bingo and the shed on the allotment. Well done. You will be mentioned in dispatches.

TreemouseGraduate in reply to AncientMum

Sorry about that AM, KK was making me laugh and we spilled our D&B. I have removed the walnut whip smudges off the table and hoovered up the crumbs :)

AncientMum profile image
AncientMumGraduate in reply to Treemouse

Cheers Treemouse. Thought someone had been round with the Shake an' Vac and the Pledge . I'll just pop the anti-macassars in for a quick wash and no one will be any the wiser ;)

"Inspection by High Command" should save the escape kit from confiscation.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to

Yes, I think I may have the right range of cards to leg it out of the window near the staff car, up the steps, along the narrow corridor, over the wall, across the river and to safety on the other bank. Auf wiedersehen, Herr Kommandant!

AncientMum profile image
AncientMumGraduate in reply to dozzer19

Steady on Sir, you don't wanna put your leg out of the window!!

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate in reply to AncientMum

How to escape without exiting the window?

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate

Oh yes!

What on earth is an HRM?

Enough of the toilet humour kk

Ah. Personally if it was a spot I had to get out of because it was beyond even my superpowers I'd go for the Jag F-type coupe.

Didn't they used to play in the Second Division?

dozzer19Graduate in reply to AncientMum

In the days before the Premiership.

dozzer19 profile image
dozzer19Graduate

Good tactic NCO KittyKat007, MarkyD seems to know his stuff. Maybe we should give him a rank?

spoonierunning profile image

My great aunt used to have them on the chairs :)

AncientMum profile image
AncientMumGraduate in reply to spoonierunning

So did mine! :)

Mmm. To stop grandad's brylcream getting on the sofa.

Running66 profile image
Running66Graduate

I think we must all be distantly related 'cos I had a a Great Auntie Mcassar too! When she came to see us she used to lie on the back of the armchair, and refuse to move, which created some difficulty 'cos Grandfather would want to sit on the chair as well.

Yes and we've had this conversation before.

Thank you for your good wishes NCO KittyKat007. They are obviously sincere, not remotely with a view to promotion.

I hope you're not suggesting an Ace Ventura.

I'm not washing those antimacassars again, so don't go getting 'product' on them :)
