Saw a MT SNCO chewing the arrse off some young Leading aircraftman many years back, he had told him to use the cage to inflate a fire engine Tyre when he came back he saw the lad INSIDE the cage with the tyre about to inflate it, gave him a right yelling at, but there are those you need to describe every action required to do a job

Takes me back to Minden 1981. The scouse Tp Sgt had told a squaddie (whose name is seared into my mind Stanley S*******d!) to back the G10 wagon up to the storeroom. I said 'Do you realise what you've done?' He repeated his instruction. 'No' I said, ''you've asked him to back up to the door.' 'Yes?' he said. 'No', I said. 'He will back right up to the door.' 'Foochin' 'ell!' says Scouse with a few other choice words. Stanley had indeed backed up, over the kerb, across about 5 metres of boggy grass hard against the wall and completely blocked up the exit as well as chewing up the grass from a couple of practice manoeuvres.
Stanley was a bit simple but utterly charming in his own Stan Laurel sort of way. He had got through selection and training because no one could be mean to him. He was a kind of mascot. He was also famously well endowed. The troop supposedly threw him into a brothel having had a whip round but the girls chucked him out WITH the money in complete hysterics at his unwillingness to proceed despite having such equipment.
I am afraid I instigated his discharge because he was a complete liability to himself and he caused more and more damage with his misunderstood directions. As the novelty wore off he was increasingly isolated and at risk of being bullied..... it's not the Boy Scouts. Yes, even the CO's wife heard about Stanley!

Aye, there are some fine specimens that have graced our forces we had one like that on one of my old sqn's, how the hell he was let through the doors was anyones idea it must have been on recruit a mong week, you saw him in the mess eating and he had more over his face than in his gob he was fit for light duties only so eventualy was shown the door.

That's one of those..."I've got a friend"... stories isn't it, Stanley B'stard

Brings back memories

My old man was in the habit of buying cars at auction and trying to turn a dollar on them.

I learned a lot, on both sides of the coin.

If anybody needs to know how to repair the chassis of a Wolsely 16/60 with isopon I can give tips

I had a Triumph herald, with so much rust in the chassis, it would come apart on roundabouts, and the passenger door would fly open. I fixed that, with a bungy from the door handle to the handbrake. Proper new forest mechanicing

also had a sunbeam alpine/rapier all for very little money mind

I had the Holbay 120 version of that. Quick as a 3ltr Capri.

Well, let's put it this way, it was my wife who told the OC's wife who told the CO's wife after the same Tp Sgt caught Stanley hosing down an AEC's hub. When he shouted to stop! Stanley turned round and his secret was out

I wasn't referring to Stanley's large appendage.
I was referring to his mental capacity.
Hence It's one of those, "I have a friend" stories

We have a Stanley on here. Ours identifies as a duck

Dopey twat missed a trick there, He should have said he was a reborn Hugh Hefner... at least he could have shagged himself silly until he was 90 odd yrs old.

Made me chuckle, but at least this judge has some common sense

MSN

and this quote is spot on

‘Citizens are to be thick-skinned’​

He added: “Offending someone is not a crime. It is an integral component of one’s freedom of expression. Citizens are to be thicker-skinned, especially when they behave in ways that are highly likely to trigger such profanity – like driving too fast on a street where innocent kids are playing. Being told to ‘f--- off’ should not prompt a call to 911.
