          the early bird only really started on the 64 Bn, you came into the canner that night and early birded it up next morning

          Talk about suffering every step up that poxy hill
          Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
          Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
          The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
          The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
          The best lack all conviction, while the worst
          Are full of passionate intensity.

                    4. "Bunker party". Or to use the right word "Groundhog"!!!!!!!!!!
                    5. Minesweep 7.30 in the AM. an ya feckin dieing!
