Hi
Thought i would share as I'm so excited that my big brother is back from Afghanistan and will be home later on today ;D. Have been so worried this time around and happy he is home safe and sound. We will be having a second Christmas day next weekend because he's been over there for 6 months and missed out on his fave Christmas dinner. Then present opening time. My eldest Thomas is very attached to his uncle and has been sending him letters telling him all about whats going on. I haven't told him yet that Ashley is home today cant wait to see his face he's missed him so much.

Great news Mummybunny. You must be so proud of your brother. Tell him I have great respect for both him and his fellow soldiers. Have a lovely catch up time and belated Christmas

Thanks everyone
I will pass on the messages. You would think we would be use to it now he's been in Army for 14 years this is his second tour of Afghan not to mention various tours else where. He thinks we are funny worrying about him as he's 32 ;D. Alot of the younger lads have nick named him Dad ;D ;D
I am very proud of him. Me and my partner served for a couple of years as medics but he's planning on doing the full 22 years.
Mum and dad are taking him to Turkey for a well earned holiday. He said as long as there's a sea view a beach and a bar he will be happy. ;D Will probably be pickled after a couple :P

That's lovely news- have fun!
Big Respect to your brother & all his colleages.
Hope you all have a great time next week.
I am really happy for you, it must be such a worrying time when he is in a war zone.
I have a brother whom I love like mad and he has never understood that when he was doing something out of the ordinary that I was worried about him.
Enjoy your Chrismas and happy holiday, he deserves it. I may not live in the UK but I am very proud of our Armed Services.
Have a wonderful Christmas. What about New Year ;D. I bet your little one won't be able to sleep tonight.
This is the kind of thread I like! ;D Lovely stuff, Lucy and I hope you all have a great time together. Best wishes to your brother and I hope he enjoys his time back home :)
I guess i am his replacement then as of Sunday
kt will be thinking of you, hope it goes well.
What can one say? Yes, to all of that.
And make sure he gets that pension!!
As Tulipa says I hope it all goes well KT :)
We'll all be thinking of you KT. ;D ;D ;D
I hope your brother arrived home safely. Have a wonderful week-end. ;D ;D
Have removed a couple of posts from this thread as I'm sure mummybunny didn't want it to turn into a discussion re soldiers/unions and working conditions. No offence intended but a separate thread can be made for those wishing to continue in that direction but for this thread, let's keep it on track. Thanks :)
happy christmas to your brother, mummybunny.
happy Christmas to you all ;D
