I love sewing more than drinking spirits with polish lads

sewing is cool, you get a real appreciation of your own kit then :)

I rather enjoy it. Put on a Django Reinhardt record, pour a cup of whiskey, and relax. It's rather theraputic in some ways :lol:

And I agree, you get a real sense of appreciation for your uniform.
