76 REGIMENTAL JOURNAL OF THE 9TH/12TH ROYAL LANCERS (PRINCE OF WALES’S) focussed on the drips (complaints) and whinges of the challeng- ing customers here on site. After sandy bottoms (end ofdrink) it also included walking the parish and decks (floors) locating the heads (toilets), tea boat (tea and coffee making facility) and galley (cookhonse) and other important facilities. I was also informed that all personnel were under the Naval Discipline Act and as the EXO would have to conduct, Captain’ s Tables (CO’s Orders), Rounds (Block inspections), Ship’s Investigations (Boards of Enquiry), Defaulters (normally when jack’s have been adrifi (absent) and Requestmen (interviews concerning changes in conditions of service). This visit was an ideal opportunity to sort out my admin, go to the Ward Room (Officers’Mess) and get my cabin (roorn) sorted. My overnight stay introduced me to the scran (food) and toofers (drinks two for the price of one). At the end of a busy day and a run a shore (trip into town) I was completely threaders (tired). I now feel I am able to add Jackspeak to my colloquial German, and I now feel confident enough to learn Crab. Sadly, there are no language bonuses for these additional skills, but I certainly feel I can act as an interpreter should the situation arise. Should you find yourself in a tri-service environment without an inter- preter, I enclose the following chart for assistance: PAW NAVY ARMY Heads Latrine Pit Bunk Galley/dining hall Cookhouse Pussers Cook Cook Wet Coffee Limers/ Goffa Cordial/Can’o’drink Seaman Private Chief W02 Captain Colonel Defaulters AGAI 67 Mess/Cabin Barracks Kecks/Trolleys Underwear DQ's Put in Confinement No Is Bus Conductors Uniform Lid / Cap Beret/Head Gear Stores QM’s Store Hammered Drunk Deployment/ Detachment Deploy Trainers Die for your Country Athletic Shoes Die for your Battle Buddy Shipmate/Oppo Mucker Waste Take Out DMS boots Jump Boots Pussers Sandals Desert Boots SBS SAS Shore Patrol MP’s Oouh-Rah!
