Hope he gets on ok, I knew someone who was a helicopter winchman in the services, and he was there, said it was a wonderful place.

Sorry I have been so long been digging out my poledancing gear ....and busy packing to go to Rosies....

**Imagines Hayley working undercover in the Rosie !!**

*glares back at Hayley* Well at least I didn't joke about you getting a holiday job ............. .......... swimming up and down Loch Ness every morning ......... ......... and that the first morning, the Monster got out and picketed the Lake ........... *wonders if it really did* .......... *ducks to avoid something being thrown by Hayley*

Hayley - you'll have to ask your son if he knows Eli then. Lucy x

Yes Hayley - the same one. Bless em all.... Lucy x

You not going with him, Hayley? Didn't I hear you'd applied for a part-time job? Swimming in the waters to scare the sharks away! lol Sorry, couldn't resist that. I shouldn't make jokes like that; it's not funny *frowns her best frown* Hope it goes well. x (My daughter's given up the idea of the Army: too much like hard work apparently. She wants an easy life)

* glares at Glenis * What a great idea ....* thinks *

Lucy ...could be the same regiment 1Cheshire .....

Hi Hayley, My son in law is off there too at the same time. (wonder if they know each other?) I really feel for my daughter as they only got married last September and he's been in Northern Ireland ever since!!! Lucy x

Lorraine How very dare you why would my lovely angel go to a place like the ROSIE no no not my boy.....lol

Hayley,my oh did a year tour of Belize. He says the local bottled beer is called Belikin,also known as belly-ache beer,the other local drink is white rum and it has a kick. If he talks about 'The Rosie'he will be talking about Rauls Rose Garden which is a Brothel !!! If he has time off the Blue Hole Coral Reef is a great place to go,there is also a lot of Mayan ruins to visit and Cancun in mexico is about an hours flight away. lorraine

Hayley. Did he by any chance join the army to escape his mother? pmsl

* sighs * T O R ...he is not allowed to swin in reefs or camp out let alone sleep up tree's I shallbe sending factor 2000 with him or is allowed a big knife or a knife of any sort......Coz I have sent a note saying so.... PMSL * whispers so glad son can not read this tee hee *

Hayley - he'll have a whale of a time. Went to Belize a few years ago with a combined services caving expedition. (I wasn't in forces just have the right contacts). If he gets the chance tell him he must do some diving on the reefs - they're fantastic. But also tell him to stay away from the Belizian homebrew it's lethal. And if sleeping out of camp he needs to put a hammock up in trees rather than sleep on ground. Beautiful country with only the odd deadly snake. Machetes are very useful in the jungle. But much cheaper to buy there. Sorry just read back through this and it reads scary. Not meant that way. I spent 6 weeks over there and the worst I got was a bit of sunburn. Hope he enjoys it and don't worry about him. (I know you're a mum - they're designed to worry) T.O.R. ;o))

Please wish him all the best from me Hayley. C xxx

* Grabs Lou in a head lock before I go *
