Things I Hate About The Army - #2
I've been forcibly reminded this week that there's a slight difference between the kingsize double bed I'm used to and something that feels about 2 feet wide, my feet hang over the end and the springs are that slack that it feels like I'm in a hammock.
Ah - the joy that is an army bed in transit accomodation.

in transit accom - bloody hell my barrack bed was always like that, hence why all these years later i have a bad back i'm sure
My back hurts just thinking about it. Poor you.
And the absence of Mrs. Soldier just makes it all worse.
Got my Miss Marple hat on today and I can tell that you, young man, are a tallboy.
Hugh - so was mine until I got married. The beds in the new style accomodation are 'proper' ones though.
Katy - not the bestest.
Foilwoman - very true.
Pat - not particularly - they're just quite small beds.
Ick. I have much much sympathy. Like Katy my back twinges just thinking about it. If I'm anywhere but my own sweet carefully nurtured bed at home I ache for weeks.
They should look after you lot better n that. S'pose you can't strike for better beds?
FD, that's called mutiny, and they shoot you for it, well they used to.
mate of mine's in the Navy reserve and he just got back from three weeks training (ships to Iraq in January). he said his crappy camp bed was the worst thing about it!
