It’s been forty years since I left the Corps,

My joints now ache and my sight is poor,

Commands fade from the parade ground square,

At least I have my bloody hair!!


My teeth are intact and all in place,

But my waistline’s vanished without a trace,

I last saw my feet two years ago,

These late night curries have to go!


So now I’m going to get in gear

500 miles to run this year

Sponsor me to achieve this goal

I hope the miles don’t take their toll.


No bergen, boots or webbing for me

Just the RMA shirt that came for free

Memories of CTC and Poole

Have I been a bloody fool?!
