Watching the lightening roll over a freshly cut forest as rain covers the now upturned roots of the cut trees.

No doubt the once shady ground will be mud come morning, and the spell of wet pine will be cast with the breeze.

Cold and damp

I thought you blokes liked the cold and damp, jumping off of landing craft into the ogin then running about soaking wet.:camo:

Now I know why I joined the RAF, nice warm billets, my slippers beside my bed, my dressing gown (for going to the toilet at night) hanging up in my little wardrobe. :smile:

Only thing we didn't have was a maid to bring us our tea and toast in bed in the morning.:-(

The weather is very much dependant upon atmospheric conditions and variables such as the gravitational pull of our alleged solitary moon as it waxes and wanes moving through its elliptical orbit around our planet.

When I'm at work, yes.
Personally, I prefer (like my women) hot and humid :wink:

Maybe the RAF should have been the "senior service" :sarc:

[Chief Bones]

Considering where I live (Midland MI) and the time of the year ... it is abnormally warm. We have seen temps approaching near 90 degrees and we are just barely into spring.

What is a Batman?

 

[BritinBritain]

What is a Batman?

Its a soldier (sailor, airman or marine) that acts as a servant to an officer, cleans his kit, his room, makes his bed etc..

Alternatively it is a guy in grey tights, a yellow belt and a rubber mask who hands out with a young boy.

He is English so either of us could be right and most likely both of us are.

The action of serving as a batman was referred to as "batting". In armies where officers typically came from the upper class, it was not unusual for a former batman to follow the officer into later civilian life as a domestic servant. By the Second World War, only senior officers were officially assigned their own batmen, with junior officers usually having the services of one batman between several officers. The position was generally phased out after the war.

I´ve often been referred to as the boy wonder by several women.
