No
Lens is spelt lens. Not lens.

Buy a dictionary. No names, no pack drill.

Belt off beret off def right def right maaark time!!!!

(this will mean nothing to all those who have never been marched to the Guard Room under escort, so don't try and figure it out)
 
But there must be a version with 2 E's - I've seen it on the internet ;)

Mind you I'd never seen it before the interenet :)

apologys for using dictionary.com, i dont have a collins english to hand



:woot: :bonk: :razz: only messin' wit ya!
 
I'm a pedant. Plus I haven't had a rant at someone for a while now and I thought I'd stir things up a bit.
Plus I'm bored.

And good English isn't really that much to ask for on an English-Language site is it? I mean it is the first language for most of the people on here.
 
I can post a picture of my cat if youlike? :D
 
Hmmm... tempting...

Yes, I really am that bored now.

Oktoberfest on Camp last night and I'm hanging out of my a*se right now - the DMOC team won all the drinking competitions and trounced the pathetic RAF teams. Free beer all night as our prize and the Mother of All Hangovers this morning after only 1 hour sleep.

I vaguely recall that we called 'Naked Bar' at about midnight, which would explain why I woke up fully-dressed but with no underwear this morning. I also recall that some of the RAF girls we'd thought were straight-laced and no fun turned out to be quite 'sporting' after all... Bonus!
A good night out only marred by the fact that we didn't get to fight the RAF Regiment Gay Line-Dancing Team (QCS) as they didn't show up.
 
Ahh to be single and in the Army again. What lovely memories you bring back!

;)

Bonus!And when you sober up you'll be back to calling them fat WRAFs again.

That's the pride of the RAF you're mocking there! Crack on, infantry wannabies
 
Gay Pride, maybe...

And at least four of the RAF birds are quite fit - we have the RAF School of music here as well, so lots of delicious flute players...

Nah, you want the ones that are good at blowing horns...
 
As an ex RAF airman I could take offence to you Arkady but knowing the WRAF as I do :naughty: I must simply smile in a knowing way.

PS Beat the RAF drinking team? Standards must have slipped since I left :D
