It's funny

It's funny, well my blog isn't funny because most of the time I write about what's happening in the world and that by no means is funny. Perhaps I'm an idiot to believe in the perfect world where there are no wars, the climate is normal, people don't find a reason to hate someone else, whatever religion you are it is accepted, it doesn't matter what the colour of your skin is, people are just normal getting on with their lives the best way they can and enjoying their life. The way life is now is people always can find something to complain about or get angry about, I'm not saying that I'm perfect but sometimes it sort of gets me down because of so much hate in the world, I suppose as you get older you see things in a different light, you try not to get wound up by something that someone says or does, so what for instance I smoke too much and maybe I enjoy a drink but that's just me and why people can't accept that I don't know, there are things in my life that I shouldn't have done and there are things that I could have done better but that's the way life takes you, through all the ups and downs deep down you are stil the same person good or bad. By the way if you're interested it's 24 and set to rise to 38 degrees, hot and often gets me down when people ask why I don't go out and get a bit of colour on my skin and the simple answer is I don't want to, is there anything wrong with that, what if I do live in a country where the sun shines and it's hot most of the time, perhaps I do sit on my backside a lot and surf the web or play games too much but it keeps me happy and my mind active, what difference does it make if I'm not good at jobs that need doing I was never a handyman I was a soldier and that's all I know but do you think people understand that, no, they always say when something needs doing people say Google it, which is fair enough but without tools to do the job what's the point of reading about it. I try to do my best so people must accept that as I said I'm not perfect far from it as are many people in the world, nobody is perfect so what if you have to pay someone to do something then perhaps it's more expensive but in a way you're keeping that person in a job. Well only a few more days and the only real thing that I did right by marrying my wife will be back home and I would be lying if I said that I haven't missed her, she's the mother to our children and does a great job of it although she has a full time job as well, all I can say to finish is why can't people accept who someone else is without bias, perhaps then the world would be perfect? People are who they are and you can't change that no matter how hard you try. Well if you enjoyed reading today's blog 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...
