Field Gunner

A field gunner is a former member of an 18 man Field Gun team. The sport of Field Gun was played by the British Royal Navy up to 1999 and commemorates the Royal Navy involvement in the seige of Ladysmith, in 1900.
The sport involves a complete 12-pounder 4.7 inch field gun and limber, total weight 2100 lb. It has to be taken to pieces, moved over two 5 ft high walls, a 28ft wide chasm, and through two narrow openings that are each just big enough for one man to crouch and scramble through.

Then it has to be reassembled and fired three times before being taken back down and carried via the same obstacles back to the start line.

The only extra equipment allowed are two spars and a wire to make a sheerlegs crane to get over the chasm.

The average time for the entire run was around two mins 30 secs.

Nowadays it has been revived as a game for kids, so is not the same thing at all.

A traditional Field Gunner is therefore a hard-assed motherfucker who never thinks about injuries and pain, and a true son of a gun who you would love to have on your side in any confrontational situation, and who will have a good laugh about it with you afterwards in the wreckage of your wannabe assailants.

I'd fuck her at the drop of a hat. But her brother is a Field Gunner so I'll ask him if I can date her first.

Cheerful Charlie: Fuck, man, you've got no fingers or thumb on your right hand! Are you a Field Gunner?

Bollocky Bill: Yeah. But I've still got a complete set left.

Field Cigar

A cigarette when smoked under “Field” conditions. The phase was coined by Lt Col Douglas Genereux while on an exercise in Beaufort County, S.C.. When asked if he would like a smoke and no cigars were available his reply was simply, “Sure, I’ll have a field cigar” and accepted a cigarette

When we are finished putting up this hooch, let’s have a field cigar.

Basketball Field

An outdoor surface, typically a finely groomed fescue or other graminoid, on which the sport invented by Dr. James Nasmith is contested. Often confused with the more common, yet inferior, basketball court, these fields are much gentler on joints and ligaments. Sizes may vary, although regulation fields are 94' x 50'.

1. I am going to the basketball field to dribble my ball.

2. Those tall people are always on the basketball field.

My favourite character from PLL would have to be Emily Fields!

Theistic Field

The year round visible reminders of your brand of faith permeating the public space which keeps the gaslight on for you. Music, entertainment, politics, holidays, symbols, colloquialisms.

Walking near a park, Bob saw a lamb and texted a religious emoji to his friend. Both felt recharged and renewed in their faith after Bob encountered the strong Theistic Field near the park.
