SANTA`S SOLDIER
In memory of those that we have lost and those still fighting.
sent in by Edward Penticost.
T`WAS THE NIGHT BEFORE XMAS
HE LIVED ALL ALONE
IN A ONE BEDROOM HOUSE,
MADE OF PLASTER AND STONE
I HAD COME DOWN THE CHIMNEY,
WITH PRESENTS TO GIVE,
AND TO SEE JUST WHO,
IN THIS HOME DID LIVE.
I LOOKED ALL ABOUT,
A STRANGE SIGHT DID I SEE,
NO TINSEL,NO PRESENTS,
NOT EVEN A TREE.
NO STOCKINGS BY THE MANTLE,
JUST BOOTS FILLED WITH SAND,
ON THE WALL HUNG PICTURES,
OF FAR DISTANT LANDS.
WITH MEDALS AND BADGES,
AWARDS OF ALL KINDS,
A SOBER THOUGHT,
CAME THROUGH MY MIND.
FOR THIS HOUSE WAS DIFFERENT,
IT WAS DARK AND DREARY,
I FOUND THE HOME OF A SOLDIER,
ONCE I COULD SEE CLEARLY.
THE SOLDIER LAY SLEEPING,
SILENT,ALONE,
CURLED UP ON THE FLOOR,
IN THIS ONE BEDROOM HOME.
THE FACE WAS SO GENTLE,
THE ROOM IN DISORDER,
NOT HOW I HAD PICTURED,
A PEACE KEEPING SOLDIER..
WAS THIS THE HERO,
OF WHOM I`D JUST READ?
CURLED UP ON A PONCHO,
THE FLOOR FOR A BED..
I REALIZED THE FAMILIES,
THAT I SAW THIS NIGHT,
OWED THEIR LIVES TO THESE SOLDIERS,
WHO WERE WILLING TO FIGHT.
SOON ROUND THE WORLD,
THE CHILDREN WOULD PLAY,
AND GROWNUPS WOULD CELEBRATE,
A BRIGHT CHRISTMAS DAY.
THEY ALL ENJOYED FREEDOM,
EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR,
BECAUSE OF THE SOLDIERS,
LIKE THE ONE LYING HERE..
I COULDN`T HELP WONDER,
HOW MANY LAY ALONE.
ON A COLD CHRISTMAS EVE,
IN A LAND FAR FROM HOME.
THE VERY THOUGHT BROUGHT,
A TEAR TO MY EYE,
I DROPPED TO MY KNEES,
AND STARTED TO CRY.
THE SOLDIER AWAKENED,,
AND I HEARD A ROUGH VOICE,
SANTA DONT CRY,
THIS LIFE IS MY CHOICE,
I FIGHT FOR FREEDOM,
I DONT ASK FOR MORE,
MY LIFE IS MY GOD,
MY COUNTRY,MY CORPS.
THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER,
AND DRIFTED TO SLEEP,
I COULDN`T CONTROL IT,
I CONTINUED TO WEEP..
I KEPT WATCH FOR HOURS,
SO SILENT AND STILL,
AND WE BOTH SHIVERED,
FROM THE COLD NIGHTS CHILL,
I DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE,
ON THAT COLD DARK NIGHT,
THE GUARDIAN OH HONOUR,
SO WILLING TO FIGHT.
THEN THE SOLDIER ROLLED OVER,
WITH A VOICE SOFT AND PURE,
WHISPERED,,CARRY ON SANTA,
ITS CHRISTMAS DAY,,ALL IS SECURE..
ONE LOOK AT MY WATCH,
AND I KNEW HE WAS RIGHT,
MERRY CHRISTMAS MY FRIEND,
AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT

Christmas
Well,for any of you who hav'nt twigged yet,its just round the corner.So I thought it would be interesting to tell each other how we do things.
The big day here,as most of you know,is Christmas Eve.All the family arrive late afternoon,put their presents under the tree,then exchange greetings and presents to the music of Silent Night.In the meantime the lady of the house(my Edith)has prepared a sumptious meal of Veal cooked in a certain way.So all is peaceful for a couple of hours,and its usually the next morning when they go home.On Christmas day we have our dinner as in UK,I make the starter of prawn salad with avocado,then comes the fresh turkey with stuffing and chestnuts,roast spuds,brussels and parsnips,with cranberry sauce.We used to love Xmas pud afterwards,but after bursting nearly several times we now,for those with room,have an iced medley.All this of course with the Port and wines that help it all down.After the guests are all gone we collapse into the armchairs and doze for a few hours.And guess whats on the menu for the next few days,YEP,its TURKEY,and we doctor it up in different ways to get rid of it!
But for New Year we are gonna live it up in the mountains and be waited on.So now is a good time for us to wish you all a very Merry Christmas,and a prosporous but more importantly,a healthy New Year.
Don and Edith

Where is my mate Paul Graver!
Now, I ask you all, where is my mate Paul Graver....or should I say 'RoyalDragoon'! He has been very quiet and he hasn't sent me any email.....not that I answer emails all that often anyway, but I do like reading them. Do you think he could have laryngitis????
Mr Graver, I will be in Perth next week so get the guest room ready....I'm not paying for hotel rooms when I have free accommodation at the Graver residence and I don't eat much and as I don't smoke you won't find any cigarettes in your swimming pool....lol.

Another sad day RIP Tony
Stan asked me to send the following
Sadly, Ex Boy Soldier Tony Watts, from the good old Wesendorf days passed away yesterday 8th November, 2008
There were only ever 4 'Royals' Boys at Wesendorf, myself (Stan) Jim Meike, Tony Watts and Pat Burgess. Jim Meikle and myself are now the only two left!
Being a 'Royals' Boy was a tough act to follow!
For example: If a Boy was caught smoking at Wesendorf it was an instant 7days Jankers!!!!!! - I think I Blancoed Dixey Lewis's web belt more times than his own Batman!
On a more positive note, we had to report at 11am daily to the cookhouse where Dixey gave us a cheese sandwich and a cup of cocoa - to the envy of the rest of the regiment I might add!
Tony was found dead in his car after telling his wife he was going out for a while.
I hope to be able to attend Tony's funeral as a Royals/TRBL standard bearer.
Tony lived in Rochester, Kent.
If anyone has Jim Lees's email address, would they please forward this to him.
As for the above picture, which I took in 2007 - Cheers TONY!
Stan and Terry Whitworth
Mick Lock
I have received a phone call today to inform me of the death of Mike Lock after a long illness bravely born although not on the site but met up with him two years ago at the North Staffs Dinner, my thoughts go out to his wife and family at this sad time.

Brisbane Welcomes Dick Cox
A few members from Brisbane gathered to have lunch with Richard (Dick) Cox - Life Guard and his partner Irene, who are currently holidaying near Brisbane and to show our Brisbane hospitality. Although 7 attended but we all had fun, great conversation and some good laughs and most of all the food was delicious and plenty of drinks.
Dick presented a framed Life Guard plaque to put up on the wall once the Australasian Association gets launched. On behalf of all members I would like to thank Dick for his lovely gift and this will be displayed at future functions.
Once again, it was worth the effort just to see the smiling faces.

Hi Derek
Thanks for the response.......will leave you to talk it over. Yes we have now admitted any interested 'Blues and Royals'...who were neither 'Blues' or 'Royals' if they have an interest in the history of one of their old regiments, we also admit 'Royals-Attached personel' and surviving family members of 'Royals'...but we do not admit ex-Blues......Blimey.!!!!!.....we even admitted "JENNYBOB".
All the best & stay lucky.......Mike.
BB,s
Mike i will have a chat to my Admin lads see what they think.we do need to keep this SITE as ROYALS ONLY i hear you have BLUES AND ROYALS and few more army types on ur BB. anyway will let you know.in one way its a good idea regards derek

AFV Eagle Transfer
Another item from Bandrat’s collection is this AFV regimental decal – I have 2 as per facing collar dogs. I cannot remember where I got these but I am sure it was when I was in Detmold 1966-1968. On the back it is printed Gale & Polden Ltd & ‘Soak transfer in tepid water for about a minute and slide from paper’.

BB Memberships
Hi Derek
Just like to run this suggestion past you for consideration?????? Would it be a good thing for all members from both 'Royals BBs' to register their names on both BBs. Just in case disaster strikes one or the other. As long as there is a link on both sites to the other then they can move freely and easily between the two......if they miss something on one then they can pick it up on the other. Give it a thought and see what you think.
Regards......Mike.
REMEMBERENCE DAY
| Start: | Nov 11, '08 10:00a |
| End: | Nov 11, '08 5:45p |
| Location: | BLUES AND ROYALS SITE. |
The service will take place AFTER the main service at the National Memorial Arbouretum. APPX 1030HRS
The Duke a Kent is I believe is taking the Main event Salute so there will be LOADS of people there, get there EARLY,MAY BE A PARK AND RIDE ,unless you can "BORROW" a disabled pass (JOKING OF COURSE),Our service is to be conducted by the North Staffs branch of the HOUSEHOLD CAVALRY, Chaplaine REV ANN TAYLOR.
If in the meantime IF she has to attend a funeral the service will be taken by her permision ME!!!!!!,
So if you want a very impromptu service come along ! tell your friends and neighbours,spread the word we want LOADS of people taking part to share our love and sorrow of ALL the fallen COMRADES Whatever unit they served in LAND SEA and AIR.They do NOT have to have served in ANY Regiment,but just want to show thier respect.Hope to see at least 1,999 good men and true there!!
B.Allen old MISERY GUTS GRUMPY.
GOD BLESS you ALL.

Truly Scrumptious.!!!!!!
Derek,.....many thanks!!!! Got here in the end. You have excelled yourselves here. Layout...super, colours....super, and the content is ...super!!!!!
Perhaps it will all be for the better, as it is much more professional than MSN. Give Denis my regards, I still have not managed to receive his email, no doubt it will turn up somewhere.????
Please keep up the excellent work (but don't overdo things........DELEGATE!!!!!!).
All my very best wishes..................Mike.
