Chuff chart? Clearly not one they have in the Navy!

Whats a Navy Chuff Chart? An army one is a calendar where you cross of the days until something major like leave or the end of the course.

I don't know if they have a Navy version... Ray goes for 'three sleeps'... like Kermit the frog in 'A Muppet Christmas Carol'. His leave tends to get mucked about a bit cause there ar so few people in his job, one gets sick, they all get dumped on!

Am I the only B2B in the forces then...? Thankfully I'm still in the UK, but I see Ben about 1 weekend in 3, and that's only because I'm injured...
There are a lot of Army WAGs, and a good support network for them, but there isn't much help for the HABs! I feel guilty about leaving him behind but the Army was my life before him, and I think he's an absolute saint for putting up with it!

Oh and I have a chuff chart for the end of my course! Only I didn't realise it had a name!

I always have a chuff chart.... makes it all seem more real for when he's coming home!!!! And guess what, after 6 weeks mine is now lying in my bed whilst I leave a quick post!!! He's based in Larkhill in Salisbury (as you know Hails) Royal Artillery..... I still actually cant believe he's home.... it doesnt seem real yet! So im going off to cuddle him now. Night ladies xxx

beckythemadcow- gosh i never thought about women in the army and the men being left behind. how ignorant of me! i suppose everyone just links the army to men dont they? but i suppose men feel the same as the women when ther gfs are away. how come you are injured?x
