    Class act mate, would you not even think about the TA, even a support role like RLC or something? Not being nasty just genuinely asking if RM/Para etc was to demanding on your ankle?

    Typical.

    I know you're not being nasty haha. Like I said, I doubt I will ever be in a position to go for the fighting units, but you never know. If we extrapolate the improvements over the last 3 weeks, on to the next 3 weeks, then I'd say I could probably go jogging in 3 weeks time, but as we all know, it doesn't work like that.

    While the military would be good, my main aim is to begin jogging for fun again. I'll cross the military bridge if it comes to it.

    I thought you watched other people save lives whilst trying not to get in the way?

    Have I really been that quiet? Work, trying for jobs in more hilly, snowy climes and being rejected for said jobs takes up a lot of my time.

    Haha! I was just a kid back then mate, yeah it's taken a long while, persistence and patience ;)

    No I was not given an official TMU but told to book a re-medical when I was training at full strength with no pain again.
