Morning Sergeant Cornish.

Have you seen the Captain this morning? Surely this tardiness isn't a good example for the new recruits.

Everyone's standing about on the parade ground waiting for inspection and they're getting tired of me taunting them with my weekend pass.

Mornin' private Jewels. Pleased to see you spick and span with your boots gleaming. Hope you have made your bed properly will be into the barracks later to see if I can bounce the old penny on the blankets. Better not try that on the captain's bed as he's still in it!

I expect he will be along soon blustering that he has been planning battle tactics!

The news is not good this morning but I'll leave it to spaceman in case you all decide to shoot the messenger. I've a load of fresh stuff to list under my charity id. It arrived yesterday. And, now our sons have returned to their normal lives, the house is quieter so I should get more done.

Morning all!

Welcome to the fray, hollandiacoolpix, you can never have too many Dutch squaddies. (The Dutch contingent of the UN peace-keeping force in Bosnia were unanimously voted the best looking. )

Thanks for the welcome, cmjewels, happy to be here

Ahhh, I bet you liked their short bermuda trousers, eh?

Congrats with your 80 new listings!

Thank you, Captain Spaceman, Sir.

I can retire to my billet a happy wee soldier, now.

That's a funny smily!

Mornin' Madelaine and Holland - pleased to see you reporting for duty! Will be listing some more this afternoon but I'm off on leave myself tomorrow evening so won't be much use to the numbers this week. I will be commandeering a Cornish computer to report in however!

I will be listing more items next week once I've sorted out the postage increases.

Mornin' all,

Now the business is over how are you all, well I hope

And Sergeant Cornishmaid how is your head this morning? Coming out of the Officers mess that later again, does one have a slight hangover?

Hi Hollandiacoolpix, I think you smilies are great, where do you and the others get them from?

Private Jewels, I hope you have a good weekend, but can you please stop taunting the troops as they are getting uneasy and will all want a pass

Mornin' Madelaine, that's really good news, I hope the listings will go up over the weekend

Hi Wizbooks, I have been buying books of first class stamps everytime I go to the post office, every little helps :0
