When were you last really scared?We'd been watching the Shining. We were staying in an old church building. In hindsight, taking the shortcut home after midnight, in the mist, through the old graveyard was a bad idea.
I'm not sure what started it, but suddenly all the hairs on my neck had gone up and I was crapping myself. It was almost as bad as when, after a few cups of coffee too many and buzzing on caffeine, I got freaked out by my own reflection in the toilets.

Joined the armyWas learning how to be a soldier, now the rifles we were issued SA80's A1 version were what is known as tempramental*, so you had to do a forward assist on them. That is tapping the cocking handle with the side of your hand to make sure it engages correctly.
So off we go into Sailsbury plain to play Soldiers, doin a little firing, running about, changing magazine. then out of no where a great fuck off size nine boot hits me in the side of the head.
