Afternoon Campers,

I thought it would be best to kick something off on here pre Thailand. Just to reiterate how bloody awful the weather is etc etc. We depart the UK in exactly seven days, to say we are excited maybe be the largest understatement..err ever, well apart from Bear as we know that kid doesn't get excited for Christmas until it is upon us. We have finally tucked away our Insurance/Internal flights/Leaving party/Money/Training/Accommodation/Visa, which I believe is everything..if its isn't, then b***** it as im knackered! We decided to keep a blog as looking through four different facebook pages for the worst photos (me without straightners..) and the best photos..(Dave with lady boys) so now this is a one stop shop for ridicule and humiliation, but also obscene jealousy.

I couldn't have asked for a better group of lads to be going with, we will hit the training hard, but also the drinking hard..We will update weekly as we only get one day off per week. We all have personal aims for this trip, Bears is to keep off the infamous winter wood, Goose to get ready for his marines fitness test in December..he is a long way off the 80 press ups..Geeze to finally get that fab six pack back and stop pulling pirates and Me..well I really want to have a professional fight in a ring, with people betting on me to lose! that's all I want..obviously the fitness side of things is brilliant and we should all tone up, but don't expect to much as..well..we love a drink..so im not to sure!

Anyway ill shut up now so you can go browse the photos..well if you haven't already kicked me into touch.

Rusty Out.
