Meeting James tomorrow

Had a hard luck story about only being allowed out for 4.5 hrs and there is only one ferry etc. and he wants me to meet him at Raleigh and hand over his bike! His Mum and I can wait around in Cornwall for him in her car, until he brings it back to raleigh.

Have somebody coming around tonight to look at his wiring loom which is still faulty from the crash so should be fixed soon.

James was called into his Warrant Officers office yesterday to ask why he had not put in for Weapons Electrical branch. James said he didn't think he would get his first choice as he thought he has not in the top half of the class. The WO got out his league tables, and told him he is in the top 10% (top 6 out of 60)

You never really know how well your doing in the mob. You would think they would be motivating the better ones to take these jobs.

Sounds like he's really enthusiastic about making a good career in there.

Not if he is going into the 'Electrical' branch and cannot sort out his wiring loom

Sure he will do okay as long as he sticks with it. Been nearly 30 years since I was first at Raleigh. Think I may stick with it.
