News from the Elven realm...

Post by Elfgirl »

the erstwhile Elfie is pleased to announce her engagement to her hot flyboy on December 26, 2009.

That way, we get a public holiday every year on our engagement day.

Wedding plans are afoot, but not for a couple of years...!

:P

... leaving one service, to enter another - at least he's already used to taking orders, performing under pressure, and jumping into action on a moment's notice.

I don't pressure him to perform - he's always at attention! :twisted:

No complaints from him as to the amount of 'action' either!! :biggrin:

Sea: He's getting a job as a hydraulic/mechanical fitter for drill rigs - big moolah here, with the current mining boom! AND NO PAPERWORK (which he abhors the most - he loved working on the planes, but now as a SGT he's just stuck doing all the frakking paperwork - and he HATES it, so he'll be happy to get back to REAL work! ;)

He's gonna stay as an active reservist in teh AF tho...at least he'll get TAX FREE pay doing that (our armed services have to pay bloody tax, can you believe it? They put their lives on the line & the f**king government makes them PAY TAX to do it. Why the hell would anyone join now???? Make the pollies go out there instead...oh wait, no we can't - no ammo cos we can't AFFORD it...too busy wasting our taxes on the illegal trash infiltrating the country!) :roll:
