Snowball, the Bukowski of HNA...

Someone print me a t-shirt with "I was there when Snowball posted something interesting".

Snowball is a rigger?!?

Flippin' Lightnings used to leak all over hangar floors

Good to see ex forces types on here. ANy more out there?

Boy Entrant RAF St Athan (49th Entry) then RAF Leconfield - 92 Squadron (The Blue Diamonds)
then 60 MU, also Leconfield, then ARF (Aircraft Repair Flight) going all over the country

Topcliffe, Binbrook, Valley, Cottesmore, Disforth, and loads I can't remember in Lincolnshire

Managed to get myself a court-martial (refused a punishment) and got 28 Days in Catterick (served 24)

were you at lynham at all?

my dad and step dad were there for a while

[Snowball]

I was at Wroughton, briefly but never Lyneham

Do you think we're likely to get him permanently in the summer? Griffin and Zurab (albeit long term loan) came back. If QPR go up I imagine they won't take much convincing to let him go. If Mikele is happy here and a million miles away from the QPR first team in the Championship, he'd surely be happy to come here for good. Wouldn't even need to move home.

He has said multiple times on twitter that he would like to sign permanently in the summer - so I guess it would depend on how expensive he would be?

[rhroyal]

Good then. Like I said, if QPR go up he'll be available cheap as he's not even near their team at this level. Around £300,000 I'm guessing.

[muddyfeet]

would seem a fair fee for someone who's made such a difference to our team

[DOYLERSAROYALER]

....as Colin likes Reading so much, he'll probably open the negotiations at £1m

[Stranded]

I'm sure QPR have said that if they go up, he'll be released.

[URZZZZZZZZ]

A free signing for our return to the Premiership

Boy Entrant .... and got 28 Days in Catterick.

Snowball confirms what many on here have suspected for some time.

I feel the punishment was somewhat lenient.

[Snowball]

Hah!



(Those were the days)

I too was a Boy Entrant - Junior Leaders Regiment Royal Artillery 1983.

Never got caught though.

Went on to serve 12 years in 3RHA in various locations (NI, Cyprus, Germany, Belieze, Kenya, Sinai).

1963 me, RAF St Athan. As for getting caught, me, lots of times. I used to sneak out with a mate after bed-check
and hitch-hike thru the night to Newport. We got caught by MPs the once and said we were coming IN!

7 Days that time.

There was a crazy game we played. As BE's were wore "denims" all in one suits. In ranks, you gently pulled the loose fabric
from the butt area of the guy in front, and sliced a big hole in it with the ultra-sharp knife you'd just been "done" with.

I got done, and was quietly doing the guy in front when he spun and grabbed the knife, right through to the bone, blood everywhere.

of course, the code, I had to say it was a one-off (which made me look pretty weird)... 14 Days but the biggest problem
was waiting for the guy to come out of dock. He was HUGE. In the end he was fine with me (Thank oxf*rd)

Poor guy years later scratched himself on coral or something in Penang and was dead a few hours later.

All in all I must have been up on two dozen charges in my "career"
