I have a message from Connor who rang last night to organise arrangements for me to attend his Passing In Parade on 15th October.
He said I'm to tell everyone that 8 Platoon (Connor's platoon) beat 7 Platoon (Jack's platoon) in a sports competition and that even though 7 Platoon won the odd challenge, 8 Platoon scooped the overall winners title in the end.
Given that Connor didn't even participate in the event I'm not sure of the relevance of this little nugget of information, but in any case he was extremely delighted with the result and I think it's probably more of a dig at his friend Jack than anything else! Sorry about that Jack :-)
just had a call off jack strange he never mentioned the result!!! he also said connors black eyes were going down!!
ReplyDeleteHi Jack,s Mum - I wouldn't mind but Connor was so excited about the result that he even dictated to me what I should write on the blog! Glad to hear his eyes are going down a bit though. I've just requested the 15th October off work to go to the passing in parade, but whether I'll be allowed it off or not I don't know yet. I did stress that Connor had had an accident and that I'd really like to see him, so fingers crossed... It might be nice if we could meet up? It'd be good to be able to put a face to a name!
