I'm still going for a fitting for a memorial tablet or similar, though I can't really work out what it is, the RRF is a Fus Bde Drummers, but you know that anyway, just typo'd.
You don't need that wooden N.F.
I do.

I have just discovered Jagermeister & Dandelion and Burdock so you may well get the wooden bomb by the end of the evening. And I've got to get up really early to go racing. Not good.

Gibbee Gibbee Gibbee - Jagermeister neat - ok - Jager Bomb with burdock - bad........ and with slow, sad music?
Listen to some Leonard Cohen, it'll cheer you up.

I'm not listening to sad music, I'm happy as a little happy thing. I knocked it on the head after two glasses. Up at stupid o clock so can't get daft. Just sorting photos of fast things...

Hit the JD & try a bit of karaoke to the Moonshine Bandits, Pass the Ammo & polish the Fusilier grenade badges.

At a bit of a loss this evening (not allowed out ) and being stuck indoors, I refused outright to watch strictly come Xfactor or whatever it is called. So, thought I would re visit this thread and go through some of the fine (and er, not so fine) tunes that you have all suggested..... All good fun, so I thought I would add another just for all that have taken the King's (or Queen's) shilling.

Not just that, I am a massive fan of the SHARPE series, both book and film

I like this thread being resurrected from time to time, we had some fun with it and got to learn a little more about each other.....🙈 good call Nozzer. Btw I have recently bought a few badges, just not had a chance to photograph them yet. See I'm not entirely a lost cause.

Resurrection - thought I'd finally get around to posting the link to this.
It probably strikes a chord with a few old soldier, biker, drug addict members of the forum

1st South Carolina String band saw these at Gettysburg 4 years ago

They are great music of the Civil war loved by both sides of the reenactors

Just to resurrect the thread (and because I posted the link in another thread earlier this evening), a tenuous link to miliaria, - the Leningrad Cowboys. I've still got a few of their DVDs:

You’ve missed me, Am I too Late?…………. Nah, Jump up on the cart! Last night, I trolled through every page from the first post in the thread to see if there were any music lovers out there. Sadly, few exhibited that characteristic. I’m tuning out and dropping off! D.J.
