Leading on from the 25 Pdr 'Last Shoot in BAOR'.Unbeknown to me at the time. I started to develop what you could commonly call 'Gunner-ear'...No not Gonorrhoea! .....that anti -social disease so to speak!....I only found out some years later the extent of the Deafness in the one ear. The Gunner's Disease is what the quack called it!...So,basically my career on the Guns had finished as far as the Army was concerned!...I had to be content that the only 'banging' I was allowed to participate in would be on one female or another. Dry-Firing depending on your point of view! Only consulation being that a fair-few of us Gun-bunnies did develope this sympton over the years. You only have to put a number of old Gun-bunnies in a room together to understand this. They only shout for more bloody beer.They have a tendancy to go a bit 'Mutt& Jeff' when asked "Who's round is it?"......So there is a positive side to having 'The Gunners Disease' .....after all! Don't you think?........
