I'm guessing only matt can access the archive of whats left of RFUK and maybe pull an IP address, but if you google "Mehmet hacker" you get quite a few hits for various other sites globally that have been stung by the fat greasy tw@t, hopes that helps. :-? Cheers for the offer jay, when th...

Aye, Its been a while since i've posted, but I've kept me eye on the posts, just in case there was anything that tickled me fancy like.

coat hangers and a permanent marker..........

marker pen, for putting your last three on your kit and some decent coat hangers, and I garauntee you'll be the most popular bloke on the block if you've got some brasso as well.

Heard a rumour that my act (annual continuous training) this year is ex maxeval in june/july, anyone shed any light on it, why ,where what etc , I think its solely RAF and not a joint force exercise, but thats about as much info as anyone was prepared to spill. Ideas people?

You can now get onto the site using http://www.reserveforces.com/forums/index.php ,the sites not running 100% but you can still post and view, hope this helps

just as a matter of interest, whats the crack with the issue insoles?, they bullet proof or something , they must be good at something, because they sure as sh!t do a fairly crappy job of being comfortable!

A few technical issues I beleive, only problem is the admin is currently on a six month tour of Afghanistan, and as you can imagine internet access not so good in the kabul region!
