Shut the door look down my cell is in my hand ??

Saw my uncle wearing his medals for the first time ever...not many but has an order of oz and has recently conferred as a member of the order of Australia for services with the Australian SASR from 1968 to 2010(even though the title of”Sir” is no longer conferred in this country). 5’3 of coiled dynamite. Unfortunately now has early onset dementia and is in care at the age of 70. The man was an A grade rugby player and the fittest person I have ever met and struck down suddenly with this debilitating condition. The man ran marathons once a month up until 2014 and ran a trekking business for youth to trek the Kokoda trail. I am happy as I got to see him and his memory came back and we regaled each other with stories from his service and my 31 years in the Australian navy as a warfare specialist. Nowhere near his calibre of worldly experience but served with him three times during various conflicts across the globe.

Happy and proud of this person who was a huge influence in my life.

That's sad to hear, @CPOCSM.

My grandfather served in Korea and he was always a physical dynamo as well. He could still outwork me when he was 75 years old. ? He's starting to get dementia now, but at least he's 88.

I'm sorry that your uncle's been saddled with dementia while he's so young.

Mate he was a ruthless leader and was the regimental sergeant major for many years at Campbell barracks in Perth. An incident in 1999 is permanently tattooed in my skull as my father passed away whilst I was in East Timor fighting the Indonesian pricks in the oecussi enclave. I was flown home for his funeral on a Portuguese C130 from dili to Darwin and needed a piss just after take off. It was a 5 hour flight and as I was relieving myself I heard an ominous gurgling then an explosion in my face...thought it was lights out...what had happened was the loo at the back of the plane cargo area had depressurised and regurgitated its contents all over me...I was pale blue for six weeks on account of the chemicals in the retrofitted shitter. It got worse twofold as all I could hear was a very recognisable laugh coming from the front of the cargo area...there was the aforementioned uncle in his battle dress and on his knees crying with laughter...the worst part of the whole thing was I attended my fathers funeral in my full navy whites looking like a 5’6 smurf...and I was reading his committal speech at the church. My knickname went from skins to papa smurf unfortunately and every SASR soldier I was sighted by back in Timor two weeks later was aware of the unfortunate incident thanks to again the aforementioned uncle...still love the man but fuck it was torture to say the least for the following six months!
 
So today's been an interesting one lol
We didn't start working till 2.
Anyway (oh btw, one of the boys, langarren hasn't been to the land since I pulled apart his communist fantasy... I feel like Pinochet)
We started off me Ajna and Stephen having laugh, hauling blocks, laying them etc... Me and Stephen talking about our explorations in the world of drugs to horrify Ajna, standard stuff for this week.
When Stephen suddenly passed me a handful of mortar to play with, cuz why not.. I accepted (I keep saying the mortar makes me feel hungry, but what doesn't) anyway Ajna said "surprised one of you hasn't ate some yet"
Then Stephens Asperger's flared up for the first time and he just fucking shoved a lump of the shit in his mouth and started chewing..
Me and Ajna laughed alot
He spat alot.
This theme comes back...

We took a break while shit dried so we can paint on the bitumen.

Phil was having his birthday do around his firepit at the land so we all toddled over to show our faces for an hour. .

There was a young girl called Amelia there..
So as we drank our beers, she proceeded to feed the three of us in turns..
Magic berries! Yum
So these were hawthorn berries and hibiscus which is sour as fuck..
5 of them is your daily limit or vitamin c
They're sour is the point
We had them by the handful as she liked watching us squirm
Anyway this went further
And soon me and Steve were being fed sticks, leaves (she did feed me some stewed potatoes and an onion bhaji atleast, but mostly it was sour berries... Sticks.. and leaves)

At one point she told me to open my mouth
Then threw a crushed berry in their.. standard, I thought..
Then she said
"That's one that Steve just spat out". . . .
I said thanks Amelia, and told Steve I feel like I know him intimately now..
Then she proceeded to decorate me and Ajnas beards and long hair with flowers, berries and more sticks...
Till we looked like trees..
Then started fanning me with a branch because "you are the king jack, I serve you now"
I'm not sure this girl understands that force feeding me sticks leaves and berries, making me a crown of the same and decorating my beard with flowers just to laugh at me sorta doesn't make me feel like the king but fuck it.

Anyway we were all very excited to leave and paint bitumen lol

So we did

Now when we got back
Steve ate another bit of the mortar, then passed me some and said "go on, we've had worse"
I said no fucking way
He
Called me a coward

So I ate a handful of that fucking mortar and said "oh fuck off" before filling my pie hole with the grey shite
It tasted shit
It was crunchy
But atleast I've had my fillings done for free.

Then he ate a rotten Apple and said it tastes like cider
And we finished the day by taking turns clinging onto the digger bucket while Ajna threw us about on the thing (it's a good way to get out of the new foundation trench and back to ground level to wash our mouths out at the tap I think)
Then Amelia found us and gave me her secret strawberries
Which are just green unripe strawberries
Which I ate while she laughed
So yeah
Good day
Good workforce
Our buildings going to fall down within 3 years
And any volunteers who stay in it will die

Perfect
