Sorry

Firstly I have to say that I'm sorry that I didn't write anything but it was a bad day for me from early in the morning 0445 to be precise. To explain because my bank has taken over another bank my pension was four days late so yesterday I went to get my pension as I had been informed by message that my pension had been paid into my account so I went to withdraw it in my wifes car before she went to work, the limit for withdrawal from the cash point is 600euro so I took out 300 and then tried again for another 300euro but the machine confirmed my withdrawal but didn't give me the money, I waited but no sign of the money so I had to go home because my wife needed the car. Then I explained to her what happened and that I had to catch the bus to go to the bank when it opened,when I arrived at the bank I proceeded to explain what had happened and then had to fill out forms and sign to try to get my money back, the person behind the counter told me it would take a few days so I left, then I had to run to catch the bus but missed it by a whisper so I ended up hitch hiking home. When I got home I payed what bills I could but didn't have enough to pay them all until I was reembersed for the money that the cash point didn't give me. Then I just waited for the bank to ring to tell me I had been reimburssed but to no avail then the heavens opened up with high winds, thunder and lightning and torrential rain,so I had to shut all the windows and gates because of that and ended up soaked to the skin. That was basically what happened yesterday and why I didn't write anything as I didn't get time that's why I'm sorry, it was probably the worst day I've had for a long time as I always pay my bills on time but that's life sometimes it never goes to plan and yesterday was one of those days. Today will be better I hope if the rain stops and I can get out just incase my money is returned to me and then on the bus to get it, hopefully. Tomorrow I will be back to normal, thanks for your understanding, if you did understand then like, follow and share. Thank you.

Ninth installment

The remains of the unit that were in this position left and we followed them, we went around the outskirts of the village and back into the center. The rest of PIV or what was left of it were already there, we found out that Colin just after he had reached the main hq in the center of the village. We had to go back to the end of the street to see what was happening but as soon as we arrived we came under heavy fire as the enemy had pinpointed this house as our new front line, there was no way that we could reach Eric without getting everyone who attempted a rescue killed and because of the amount of enemy fire we had to fall back, on the way Alan started going berserk saying that he had to go back to fight, he was shooting everywhere so George calmed him down and asked him to take care of the elderly and that seemed to work. By now the village command had decided it was time to leave but first we had to wait for the mortar unit to reach safety. We could not get anywhere near under cons...

Third installment

Day in, day out, it was the same routine, sleep, guard, fire off a few rounds in the general direction of the enemy, there was not much else to do, the main thing was to stay alive by keeping inside every time mortars or artillery came flying in to the village. The only time that there was a lot of activitie was when we were buzzed by planes, everybody would rush outside, Ernie would jump on the transporter and fire the machine gun, I used to run to the machine gun that was mounted on a tripod at the end of the street and also fire at the plane, everybody else would be outside firing their ak47s, there was not much chance of hitting it or bringing it down but it took only one lucky shot and that would give everyone hope. After the plane had gone out of sight that the transporter was Ernies because he had shot at the enemy leaving the damaged transporter with a sniper rifle, so Geordi the commander in charge of the defense of Osijek had given it to Ernie, I also found out that he worked...

Second installment

The word money has a way of working it's way into every aspect of life and my little crusade was not exempt, how much did I need to get to Croatia, how much did I need to survive on the way, it all had to be taken into account and most where and how I was going to get the money from that I needed. By inquiring at travel agents I found out that I could fly but only as far as Austria, Italy or Hungary but the price was much too expensive for me. Taking the train to any of these countries was also far too expensive, the cheapest way was by bus but the only problem was that it took so long to reach your destination. The bus that I wanted to take went from London and it's destination was Athens in Greece, it normally went through Yugoslavia but because of the war it was not going through Budapest then down into Belgrade before going onto Greece. This was the cheapest way to go and after further inquiries I found out the times and price of the bus, now all I had to do was get the mon...
