After being messed about beyond belief, for a lot longer than he will care to remember by Her Majesty's Armed Forces, Its finally looking like Mike will be Deploying to Afghanistan at Christmas time.
Stay Safe Mike :drinking:
We will be at Blyton Track before you know it! :driver:
A few great pics of some troops...serving their country so we don't have to :ashamed:

Word is you spent too much time flirting with the terps and not managing which contractors were upto the job so the ASOs I.e. ME on the ground are going to have a hard time getting work done to any kind of standard :P

Sy was too busy getting his jollies to be doing any work. :grin:

Phew! Katy Perry looks so hot in the beginning of that pop vid in her short blue denim jacket before she cuts her hair - Great eyes and hair :drool: :love: She's gorgeous!
However, that Israeli soldierette I posted is the real deal - Does it every day for her living. :happy2:
Here's another hot soldier (Italian):

You should see the Danish army then. God knows what they feed them when they are growing up, but the women are all stunning, and the blokes all look like Thor(as in the marvel character not the Thor on here :grin: )

One of my favourite girlfriends when I was in my 20's was a slim natural blonde from Denmark :love: :drool: - I wish I had known better at the time and not played the field so much - I could have easily married her. She was called Jette but was very 'white' blonde with straight her literally down to her waist. [RR goes off to 'research' Danish army women]

Good luck and stay safe out there, Mikey :happy2:
-
Stay safe Mike.
-
Take care, Mike
-
Well....
Just checked in so see you all in 2013! Happy new year Mk5golfgti.co.uk

Stay safe Mike :happy2:
-
Keep your head down and remember the most important thing........
Don't give the car keys to Sy. :signLOL:

I dunno how I've only just seen this but good luck and have a safe tour!
I was on H12 in 2010 n the rest of my lads are out there now (21 Engineers) so if u need anything from an engr then just ask, if any of them are awkward just tell them u know me (as Sonic) n they'll be more than happy to help u out building anything at all that u might need. Unfortunately I couldn't go this time around as I'm out on 7th July by Med Discharge (tour injury) but they're a great bunch of lads, honestly.
Again, good luck n safe tour Mike.

Just heading to departures, cheers Karl
I was on H9 with 77sqn, 35Engr. Know a couple of lads from 21. Infact a mate who was on 9 with me from 77 is 21 now.
All the best in recovery mate :happy2:
-
Oh right, I hadn't realised u was in Engrs too. My rehab is over with now, has been for a while but what I do need a bit of luck with is they're thinking of chopping more of my leg off cos of some problems I'm getting when fitting prosthetics on. Just waiting out on MRI n X-ray now.
Anyway, hope to speak to you soon! Take care mate
-
Stay safe mike. Have a good time.

@ mk5-beast-91:
I just noticed your sig: "What doesnt kill you, only makes you stronger." - Very true!
-
Thanks robin.
Yer just a quote i heard a few years ago and its stuck with me ever since.

Stay safe Mike, and all the best for the New Year.
Give us your BFPO so we can send you some mags, sweets, wet wipes, or anything else?

I hope you don't find this distasteful, given you're still on the road to recovery, but take a look at this.

I know Maj Jim Cameron quite well, and he's such a fantastic bloke, as are the rest of the team. If what he does can help you, just ask.
Mike. :happy2:
-
Good luck Mike, wish you all the best and a safe & successful time :happy2:
Just caught up with two mates on Xmas eve that have been at Bastian for months on end. Hope to see some cool piccies from you soon :smiley:
-
Hope time is flying by mate :happy2:
Back on the Track in no time. :driver:
-
Thanks for the kind words lads. :drinking:
No point in giving out the address as nothing's going to reach me.
-
Thanks for that Mike, I've just signed up to them a couple weeks ago haha going seeing them on the Britcar stand at the Auto Show & PH Performance Car Show at NEC next weekend.
I know one of the drivers on their team, Jimmy Gillborn, he's the one who got me interested but I know a few other lads who have gone through them and got vocational work at places like Porsche restoration garages etc. I'm going to Uni tho so wont need vocational work and will just be hoping to get driving, even if it's only the practices where they'll sort me out with track days basically :)
I don't find it distasteful, don't worry about that! I'm one of those usual kind of squaddies who always jokes about with it all like putting my prosthetic leg on back to front and answering the door to the kids at halloween. I even have had to use it as protection from time to time when being attacked, I just take it off, swing it over my shoulder n advise them not to step any closer, it usually does the trick... possibly because they haven't a clue what has just happened haha
I'm pretty much at the end of my recovery, got really far, even completed The Great North Run, 27.5km Triathlon & The Great Manchester 10km Run in 2011 but I've had a lot of set backs recently and struggle a lot at the moment but it's only a speedbump, wont be long and I'll be back doing my charity stuff. Well saying that I'm doing one in March, an expedition to Norway which will be on ITV sometime further on in the year but we'll see how I get on with that... following the tracks of the special forces back in WW2 which some of you may have heard of (The Heroes of Telemark).
Sorry for hijacking the thread too! :innocent:
