find that hard to believe, certainly never came across as that egalitarian. and she was also the first (i think only) member of the SMT to stand up for the rights and funding of the CCF and the shooting team.Laura M wrote:Citizen classes consisted of Mrs Ireland ranting on in a rather left wing style aobut the evils of the military, not sure what we were meant to learn but I certainly learnt nothing a bit like RS!!

Hard to believe or not that what the lessons were like, I may be exaggerating slightly about the 'evils' of the military but she certainly was not being favourable towards them and the nuclear weapons argument got quite heated. Ah well character building I guess.

I've never since heard anything like it.

Me and a few others, Ewen Rubython, Adam McTurk, Mark Wenman, Ollie Fenton and Mike Ewemedimo squatted in a caravan behind the sicker for about 3 months. We set it up nicely, with rugs and cushions we stole from the sicker, so we could basically go there and smoke, etc.Tim_MaA_MidB wrote:Wow... that brought back memories!

I was in there having a fag one day, and there was a knock on the door..
It was Boomer.. It was HIS caravan... Oh b****r...
He shouted so loudly that the skin nearly came off my face... I remember it so vividly it still sends the cold shivers down my spine

I had locked it behind me.. I kept quiet and then burst out of the door and tried to leg it with my coat over my head... Not a chance I was boomed into submission..
I did like Boomer though.. A very decent bloke... He just gave me a right bollocking and told me to clear up the caravan, which I did... He left it at that...
