    Just heard from a friend You whose looking after Coppers in 2 lovely Caravan Parks in Weymouth, they are receiving £80 extra a day and the ******s are still wingeing.!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It seems that everyone is on the take from the olympics (except the armed forces) , bus drivers, tube drivers, politicians and now the old bill
    Erm are you complaining, VW ???? I thought you army types dont complain about anything, "you just get on with it" ?

    Oh Alps you just dont get it do you.

    The friend I refer to owns the caravan site that the coppers are staying at. The armed forces are not complaining only the police.

    You really are a numpty Alps , I support you one moment about the hangers on and you still come out with futile comments


    by the way I have other military friends who have family members who are in the forces who are deployed to the Olympics
    here are there comments

    My son-in law is with the RLC at the Old Trafford area. He has not mentioned any complaints. The most important thing is the public are really impressed with the way the military are carrying out their duties - with great pride and a good attitude.

    Brother in law is there... Beach volleyball .... Jammy git....got to take rough with the smooth I suppose......

    You were complaining about the bonuses.



    And now I hear on here that there are some complaints about the billeting on HMS Ocean.

    You and TDD need to set in there, set the right example to those jessies. They are obviously not TDD and VK standard of soldiership.

    Oh dear Alpine

    it is not me who was complaining about the bonuses

    I was just quoting a friend who owns the Caravan site . he said this not me
    whose looking after Coppers in 2 lovely Caravan Parks in Weymouth, "they are receiving £80 extra a day and the ******s are still wingeing.!!!!!!!!!!!!"

    So re read what I have written

    As for HMS Ocean again that came from a friend who said his son was on HMS Ocean and his son was saying it was very cramped on there. I can understand that . as there are only so many toliets and showers on Ocean unless they have got portaloos in and portable showers, the same as they have in Afgan. Tose showers are brilliant by the way Alps

    As for your last comment Alps as I said earlier you have not got a clue what Delldays or I experienced in the forces.
    Its not one rule for one set of military personnel and another set for the other group. We all muck in together
    its called comraderie. something you should aquaint yourself with.

    Once again, since VW seems to be suffering a lack of self-awareness :

    Sounds like complaint to me.

    Anyway, you have now answered that last 10-odd comments with "you havent got a clue", even though you dont remember what you post, so I am going to give this a miss from now on..

    BTW I spoke to some more troops last night whilst queuing for the Beach Volleyball. Again I got told that it is not as bad as being made out. They were all made up as they were on Beach Volleyball duty and said lots of their colleagues were giving them stick for getting the prized job. Saw loads in the stands in time for the GB women's game.

    Excellent to hear lord Coe thank the forces for keeping the city safe throughout the Olympics . As for the numpties who took their case through the courts to have missiles on strategic roof top areas what a waste of money and time snarling up the courts . Not a squeak from them.

    Completely agree with both points-

    Our lads did their job with the professionalism and dignity we've come to expect from them.

    Looks like you didn't have to get so indignant on their behalf after all...

    Stupid as well as a troll...our sevicemen and women's professionality and dignity has nothing to do with the way the Government treat them - they continually demonstrate that.
