O/T When the police go away, crime goes away.

We had an Asian guy transfer to Silverwood pit, underground, from I think Cortonwood he was called or liked to be called Nigel. This lad took some right stick from all miners and to his credit he gave it back, we're talking the late 80's early 90's. Only Asian chap I knew who ever ventured underground at our pit, a top lad!

Same in forces. Those who joined were very brave.
I was in barracks with a new recruit. Black lad very fit looking. Saw him putting his kit in his locker . And a few boxing trophies. He was knackered after travel from uk..
He apologised for being a bit rude.
2 hrs later the loical corporals (in those days)
Heard there was a new recruit..nothing to do with him being black. But thats what they did.
Came in the barracks . All the lights were off and they dragged him out of bed.
Bellam for a few seconds. One of the lads switched the lights on. Two corparals were splattered all over the floor. And george was snoring away.
He had no problems after that. 😁
