In need of mahoosive hugs

[SlugLobber]

Hugs, Piskie. (((()))). I'm sure time will pass quicker than you think. How long is the service for?

[scarey55]

Bummer, I don't really know what else to say. Snowdrop, keep your head down and you'll be back in no time.

You could always come here if you need a holiday and a bit of company but then, you'd have to leave those loverly pussies behind and that aint gonna happen is it?

Oh, and here's that mahoosive hug you asked for.

{{{{{{HUGGGGGGGGGGG}}}}}}

Kiss kiss

[Hans Mum]

[vicky]

[HayleyB]

Massive (not quite as big as HWs) {{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}

thank you all - it is pants but as Spongeypants puts it - it is part of the paycheque, but that never ever helps and I am sure it is always harder for us at home - or so himself tells me!

I'll spend the time trying to sort out this stupid non-access-without-treacle to Vine so I can be in here more cos I miss it

Perks of being married to someone in the military.
I did a goodly number in my 23 years, never easy for the OH's, but it goes by quicker than you think.

Ahem - did you enlist at age 4 then?

[bobleponge]

Ran away and joined the colours early, still happens you know.

Piskie, there is no doubt that its harder for those at home, we're out there busy working (drinking) and knowing what's happening.
The worst part for those at home is the not knowing.
I do empathise Mrs, I'm sure it wont be easy, but if its the first one he's done then you've both been very lucky. Did a quick maths test after my first posting, and in 23 years, I spent about 12 years abroad on either 4 or 6 month tours. That doesnt count the exercises and various jollies around the world either.

Big hugs for you from me too, I am sooooooo glad none of my family are in any of the forces. With four sons that was always a possibility. Hugs to anyone who's other half is away on duty.

Not good news but as already said, unfortunately it goes with the job.

On a different note, you've probably said before but how come you call him Snowdrop? Whenever I read it (and I know it doesn't say it!), I always read Dew Drop which is something far less pretty than the flower? No idea why but there you go.

[Glutton4...]

Chin up - it'll all be over before you know it!

Look on the bright side Pisk - no smelly socks on the floor, no underpants next to the laundry bin, no seat up on the loo, no toothpaste at the wrong end of the tube, I could keep going! Plus, you get to watch what you want on telly, there'll only be half the laundry and half the washing up - what bliss!

..... but if its the first one he's done then you've both been very lucky.

sadly it's not the first, he has been round the hot spots several times, it just seems to be coming around quicker each time - staff shortages don'tya'know and each time is just as scary

...On a different note, you've probably said before but how come you call him Snowdrop? ....

The Royal Air Force Police are affectionately called Snowdrops due to wearing white topped caps - sweet, isn't it

bummer bummer and thrise bummer. Let's hope it flies by in a jiffy and think how much you'll have missed him when he gets back I bet you won't argue for at least a week!

[lainey lou]

I bet you won't argue for at least a week!

Every forces wife in the country would argue with that one!
