Water RITUAL AGAIN
A combined services competition has been progressing favourably - the senior service leads by one bottle and a headache. Who was the infantry corporal who was so well fed that he could not shut his mouth.
One unit Mas a notice - Remove your crockery before you heave - rather thoughtful. You cannot judge a sausage by its overcoat - although you can usually tell a railwayman. Prize smile; Dawn came in like a homing husband. It is learned that the gourmets have reported favourably upon the old liqeur in the Officer’s Mess. Perhaps this may have some bearing on the strange behaviour of one officer of the 19th A T Coy who dreamt that the bulldozers had broken adrift and that he was attempting to make fast, with a piece of string. ♦ The bulldozers down in the hold Are all of them stark and cold But (after a bottle)they started to throttle I An officer noble and bold. I The moral of course is plain And human remorse is vain If you take one tot, don’t make it a lot Or rightmare will claim you again.
