Sanger Banger
By Anonymous
Derry 19 73
A dark rain sodden night in winter time Derry, an unarmed out post of the British Empire on the Abercorn Rd. That was a PCP/VCP a known target for shoot round the corner cowboys and trainee RPG7 users not a good place to be at times.... However a magnate for sanger bangers one in particular who had her hand-bag emblazoned with cap badges of those she'd blown over the years. I had given her the heave ho minutes earlier and assumed she had gone to ply her trade elsewhere.. It was dark and smelly inside the sanger and a young guy was at his post at the weapon slit looking up the road... At this moment from nowhere an officer appears with the intention of blagging some tea an sarny's, standing blocking the doorway, I encouraged him to try the bridge PCP better atmosphere more room etc., reason being ms SB was engaged enthusiastically blowing the weapon slit guy! She had slipped in as i was engaged doing a vehical check minutes before.. eventually the officer got the point and moved on but only as far as the weapon slit and began to engage the sentry (he of getting blown fame) in some inane conversation she quickly got the hang of what was occurring and proceeded with added vigor a real tour de force BJ... How Pte X kept his composure and his impending unloading down her throat I'll never know..... After what seemed a lifetime the officer departed ....seconds later so did the SB with a severe gypsies warning not to EVER appear on my stag again.... Pte X? he got a gypsies too, and a commendation for composure under pressure ...
