Day 14 - it's the little things!

The last few days have been quite good. particularly today, we had chapel service today, so we all got dressed up and went down to church for a few hours. It was a welcome relax for most, including those that fell asleep, only to be abruptly woken buy a very angry RSM.

We were then given a couple of hours to sort our personal administration out, most of which was spent asleep. But the best thing was that today we were able to take our cars for a spin around camp to stop the battery becoming flat. Those 15 minutes were carefree with no worries about being late for anything or having a colour sergeant breathing down your neck. We all thought about making a dash for the gate but knew the consequences would be dire. We returned to the car park only to find one of the lads in our platoons car rolling away, with him stopping it. Turns out the handbreak gets stuck on so he never puts it on. It's still in the car park, God knows where now though.

This week hopes to be good with a field exercise, some range work and the begginings of our choice of arm instruction. Tomorrow we are getting lessons on instructional techniques which should be interesting.

I've got my room done in quick time today so I'll be in bed this side of midnight!
