    Brilliant. I love to hear about older people's lives and the stories you have to tell.
    You should make more of these!

    National Service improved the lives of many by teaching skills for life !. It is unfortunate that we don't have it today. A great alternative to drug dealing, stabbings and homelessness.

    We’re all right, we’re all right now
    There’s no need to worry anymore
    I saw the army wasn’t strong
    Everything was wrong
    ‘Till the day I came along
    Them the band played
    They all hoorayed
    The Guards fired a salvo in delight
    I joined the British Army yesterday
    So the army of today’s all right
    Nice one Peter can’t wait for part 2
