I am not Brian's Lackey I was here before he was I don't do his Dirty Work I have my own mind I'm not someone's boy.

I was champion of beginners from the get-go when Brian took over he made me monitor, that didn't last long because I was going through personal PTSD crap that's beside the point I stopped helping beginners because I always got burned.

 

Got that off my chest carry on.

Not sure what prompted that mate, but all sounds good to me.

 

 

 

Segway......back in my day Officers got told to "carry on" ....other ranks were told to "go on"

Thank you for that.

Robbie that's because you're down under where you do things upside down.

 

In the military, "carry on" is a command meaning to simply continue with whatever task or activity you were doing before, essentially indicating that the officer entering the area does not want to disrupt the ongoing work and wants personnel to keep performing their duties as normal; it's a directive to "keep going" as if the officer wasn't there. 

Key points about "carry on":

Direct translation: "Continue doing what you were doing." 

Used by officers: An officer would typically say "carry on" when entering a work area to signal that they want the soldiers to continue their tasks without interruption. 

Implication of no disruption: When an officer says "carry on," it means they are not expecting any changes in activity due to their presence.

One thing I have helped Brian with and he can testify this I've helped him sniff out fraudsters charlatans Crooks not to name any names

[robinalexander]

Yep tks mate @Stephen fully understand that but I have to say you really did put it well.

 

My ref to 'carry on' vs 'go on' was more of a broad shot by NCO's at Officers who do 'carry on' a lot with unnecessary and sometimes unreasonable crap. It's a rank thing and, of course, never mentioned within earshot of an Officer.  Had some really great Officers (mates) and a few not so ..... therefore you salute the rank not the person.  Bet you've been in that situation.

 

As far as being upside down.....no ....we're all normal down here!
