"think you can access fabs when your out there.. my friend kept in contact by logging in once in a blue moon stay safe though " It's very hard to stay in touch with a sex site as you need to use your own laptop and connection is a bit of an issue. I'm taking a notebook for e-blueys but not lugging a laptop over. Everything will have to wait until I get back in December. Kids bought me a kindle and Jason's got me a new camera..... they all go in the capacious pockets on the combat trousers, so still got about 30kg I can take....... I came up with...... Haribo  | |||

Working knowledge is good as stoppages do occur. Eyes open mouth shut monkey see monkey do. Remember carrot every time no stick as it is their way or noway. Less than 6 weeks is enough time to brush up on first aid battlefield style. | |||
