Judder and Company - David Peters - Bog

This is a purely imaginary tale of the events that followed when a group of middle aged and thoroughly bored ex squaddies, albeit most of them senior NCO's, got together and decided to put some ginger back in their lives again before the wooden overcoats and the fiery furnaces - or the muddy holes in the ground - overtook them permanently! Seizing the moral high ground, (mainly to assuage their consciences), they declare that any financial gain accruing from their rather bold enterprises would be strictly secondary and that the main purpose of it all was to hone their somewhat rusty military skills and provide them with a purpose in life once again, a reason for living, if you will! Needless to say however, things don't quite go according to plan and the verisimilitudous veterans eventually find themselves suspended on the horns of a moral dilemma with no clear indication of which way to fall, and even less of an idea of what to do when they land! However, they deal with these problems as they arise and in the same way as they have dealt with most other problems in their lives - head on, and by forging other strange and unlikely but wholesome, relationships along the way on their journey through life.
