Army = Green (Royal Marines call us pongoes - everywhere the army goes the pong goes)
RAF = Light Blue (Crabs because their WW2 dress was a grey colour that matched the Navy ships Crab Grey or something)
Navy = faaabulous Blue (They're all bum boys)
Put it all together (joint ops) you get Purple - so Joint Task horse HQ is known colloquially as the Purple Puzzle Palace.
Clear as mud?

Hehe, gotcha. I did a week in the Army and about 3 months in the ATC so I officially know fuck all when it comes to your boys' slang sessions... Apart from the navy being bummers, I knew that.

Argh, Army Lingo.
I got some good news in 2007 today! I went for my interview at Southampton university today, and was given a conditional offer. And as it is my first choice, I am mighty pleased.

The Good: a sort of promotion for me. The same job title but more work, more responsibility, more feet under the table and more money.
The Bad: the team I've taken over have had a substantial fraud on there. And which muggins has to try and sort it out? Go on, guess.
The Ggly: a lad on my team, 21 with the mental age of a retarded 15 year old football hooligan. He's a fat slob, he stinks, he goes to the bogs and doesn't flush the toilet or wash his hands. He spends his working day singing football chants and gets uppity when told to do some work. He's a pampered little shit who's completely incapable of doing a decent day's work. cupcake.
