Pretty decent. I go jogging often and go to the gym in my spare time at college. I also do archery so i have good upper body strength. This summer though, i'm gonna go all out and have a training programme set.
But damn Royal Marines? My friends cousin was in that. He's totally badass, but he got his leg blown off by an IED. He wanted to go back out there after though, kinda sucks he couldn't. Good luck there man. It's gonna be hard but you'll have my respect.
tax payers money at work 100% honestly couldnt think of a better way t spend it:) LETS JUST HAVE THESE GUYS SINGING ON THE FRONTLINE PEOPLE WILL BE TOO HAPPY TO FIGHT:D:D:D
this song kept a group of us going through some P coy tests in catterrick this weekend, pissing it down as usual, carrying have the north Atlantic tundra in our bergens. Thank you!

'Gortex Trousers - they're for gays' - Best line in the song! Really great to see high morale, keep up all the hard work. 1000 Miles Apart for Christmas No. 1!
Love this good to see are lads having some banter. Hope there are some jokers like this when I start training In march. Happy Christmas lads keep safe :)
Loving this. My Flight Sergeant on basic training was the same, his motto was if its not raining its not training, why is it rain makes this rnake so happy!
I spent 3 months in Colchester for cracking my platoon commander in the mouth when I was a sprog. I feel that if I'd have shown this to the courts martial that day, I may have been excused. the end.
this is brilliant!!! if it was on itunes i WOULD download it..... proper catchy! well done xander
