Lets be honest we're all coining it while those mugs are away fighting.I earn in a day what a squadiee gets in a month, not that i'm bragging mind. One of my custies was saying that after the war the health service will be free but some of us might have to start paying tax, even more worrying than that have you heard this rubbish about smokeless zones? If people don't have smokey chimeneys to make their windies nice and mucky what are we going to do?

Got a good add on, i offer to clean the outside bog, tanner a pop.

Corporal Daz, It's cowboys like you that give us windies a bad name. I have a sign written cart and use only the best vinegar. You should go back to chimney sweeping cos thats all your good for and leave us pro's to get on with it.
When I have a custie that pops their glogs due to a blitz, I do the next clean half price for the spouse and not raid their pockets and gums for the scrap. >:( >:(

This country is full - jam packed with foreigners - we've got Indians everywhere here in Chepstow, stinking the place up with curry.

I blame this guy:

 

Look at him and the rude gesture he's giving us!!!!  >:(

Sir Oswald Mosley wouldn't stand for all these Curry Eaters invading the country; why don't they just go back to India?

(I'd better explain that we had many foreign troops from all over the Commonwealth here in the UK and Chepstow 'hosted' an Indian artillery battalion who were billeted at the Racecourse).

Ruddy Lino cleaners, lazy work-shy gits, sat at home watching their 9 inch TVs all day.

Brilliant thread Tosh.


I'm writing this from Horfield Prison.

February 1941

In court I told the beak I'd do coal mining, the merchant navy, ambulance driving, or collecting the wounded in no-man's land or with my ladder experience I'd be good on the fire engines. He said I don't want "conchies" like you dragging down morale so it's off to prison for you.

Anyway I got tarred and feathered while out tarmacadaming a farm track on the chain gang yesterday so I'm in a lot of pain and feeling pretty miserable really. Still at least I haven't been thrown to the lions or nailed up on a pole or cross!

My parents have disowned me and told me not to darken their doorstep again and my window cleaning round has been taken over by the local spiv.  :'(

Had a nice chat with a Quaker this evening while slopping out but that got cut short by an air raid. Fortunately those Dorniers don't carry too many bombs and we got off lightly.

Will write soon.


Bye for now.
It's a game of three halves!
