Seems 1992 was the end of the line....

Jul 1991 - adds to the In Service to 1992 - FNC1 a foreign weapon in 2010 - lol

Joined the neighbourhood kids in a game of street hockey last evening.  Took a frozen sponge puck to the mouth and a 8 year old's stick to the groin.  Mighta well'd up a little.  Took wife's unsympathetic laughter like a man (yes dear)!!!!

Took my kids snowshoeing and taught them to make lunch and hot chocolate on a mountain stove..........
