Ever wondered what it was like in the Royal Navy in the early `70`s, well now you can convert your home to resemble the good old days and live the life, as taken from an RN website: 1. Build a shelf in the top of your wardrobe, fit a thin mattress and sleep on top of it. 2. Remove the wardrobe door and replace it with a curtain that is too small. 3. Wash your socks and underpants in the bathroom sink every night, then hang them on the water pipes to dry. 4. Four hours after you have gone to bed, instruct your wife to whip open the curtain, shine a torch in your face and say, "Sorry mate, wrong pit!" 5. When you have a shower, remember to turn the water off when you soap. 6. Every time there is a thunderstorm, sit in a wobbly rocking-chair and rock as hard as you can until you are violently sick. 7. Put diesel oil into a humidifier and set it on high to achieve that wonderful Ship Aroma. 8. Don't watch TV except for a movie at 20:30. For added realism, have the family vote for which movie to have and then select a different one. 9. Leave a lawnmower running in the house to re-create correct noise levels. 10.Have the postman or paperboy give you a haircut fortnightly. 11.Once a week, blow compressed air up your chimney, ensuring that the soot is carried over to your neighbour's home.

Sling in a sponge with a flag on it, then run into the kitchen and sweep all the pots and pans onto the floor and yell at your wife for not securing for sea. 24.Get your wife and kids to clean their rooms every evening and at 19:00 wander around the house with the local policeman. 25.Name your favourite shoes "Steaming Bats" then get the kids to hide them around the house. 26.Lie on your bed, or sofa and fart for absolutely no reason. 27.Insist on going to the local post office for your mail and get them to phone you when it is ready for collection. 28.On Saturday morning walk around the house, whistling loudly and insist that everyone you pass stands to attention. 29.Paint the outside of your house battleship grey and put the number on the wall in big black letters. 30.Put windows and a bloody big wheel in your loft. 31.Every Thursday at 05:00 in the morning, run around the house yelling "Hands to Action Stations!" 32.
