Army men and Pornography

·       Being the children of servicemen and women meant me and my three brothers travelled to strange places like the Falkland Islands.It was amazing for wildlife, we would walk amongst thousands of penguins and nearly have a heart attack over enormous elephant seals in the absolutely freezing conditions. We went there a few times when I was younger, but there is one little episode that I seem to remember better than all of that. 

    When I was about seven, my little brother was four and my older brothers were eight and nine, we stayed with a few army guys on a heli replen - a little island in the Falklands  with refuelling pads for the helicopters. I remember us kids chilling in the lounge whilst my parents were having a drink with the army men in the kitchen.

    We found a load of magazines under the coffee table and started having a read and a look at the pictures.. but these weren't exactly the type of pictures we'd seen in our books and my Puppies and Kittens magazines. I think we realised by my dad nearly dying laughing, and my mum having a panic attack rushing around picking them all up that we clearly weren't meant to be looking at them.

   The army guys just thought it was hilarious, and slightly awkward, that us children had unknowingly spread their considerably large porn stash all over the lounge floor.
