We were border side virtually day night just doing the job. Funnily enough we, I don't know if you know, but it's called Risk, it's a board game where you dominate and you throw all the dice and things. And I remember I had to ban the soldiers from having guns at the Risk table because people got heated when they got attacked by I a set of dice, so weapons were banned whilst playing Risk.

It's a good board game where you can just play it, go away for a day and come back and continue playing it. So yeah, that was something to sort of, you know, relieve the time that was a bit of fun and excitement sort of stuff. But that's about it really, to be honest. Other than that, we were just doing the job … there's no gyms. There was no, you know, you might get a swim in the creek if you've got time, that's about it.
