Bloody hell, who would have thought you would help me out. cheers

Are they mates from the army days?

I think HWM inferred in one post that he did a three year stint in the Army, i.e. pre 1999. That would make those fellow squaddies awfully young back then.

I joined in 2010, did 9 years and left in 2019. I did two 6 month tours of Afghanistan, none in Iraq.

I would put my life on the line for them, they would do the same for me. Not one of them wanted paying and would not accept a penny other than beers all day. I cannot thank them enough

The couple of lads that I know from school days who joined the army are basically the same. No matter what, they'll be there to help out and I do the same for them. Food and drink always provided gratis.
Top guys who just get things done.

I was in Afghanistan with these 4. They are top blokes, the one kneeling down had a reall bad injury but he still grafts like there is nothing wrong with him. Just great guys and do anything for you. We were saying today how we all miss it. It's a very difficult thing to do settling into civvy street but we still all have each other to rely on.

A few of my customers are ex-army too. They are marvellous people to work for, the banter is unreal with nothing off limits.
The contrast between them and the bog standard office worker type (although they are thoroughly decent people who i also enjoy working for) is stark, in most cases.
They kind of have an understanding to how the world works.
You look after them and they look after you. They get it.

I don't think I've ever seen so many tattoos, cool. I've only got one, and it's quite small.
