You say potato… I say potato, so I do.

Stand strong brothers. ( did I mention I’m now Irish too? I’m in the process of having my username changed to Dòrn Muncaidhean ☘️ )

Aye, all the mackems questioning his decision making over this just have to look at the fact he actually went back there to see it’s not his forté.

Good lad, also managing to slip in a half-shocker…

@wykikitoon- are you going to just let this Mick call you racist?

Is Richard’s from Yorkshire? No… then Wykiki ‘ates ‘I’m.

Took a while.

Indeed *apologies for the link to the Chronic’s mobile-cancer site.

Whizzer and Chips- you were a Chip-ite or a Whizz Kid. Somewhat prophetically, given my proclivities a few short years later, I was a Whizz Kid. We’d have laced Dennis and then used Dan’s limp body to mop up the mess.

No need for that language - he’s just letting people know.

Gone a bit pear-shaped then… …ooh, that rag and bone man, not the fat singer one…

Black Garlic- anyone familiar with it? I’m thinking it’ll be nice in a Carbonara, but I love Carbonara and don’t want to fuck one up by chucking this in if it’s minging in it. I reckon if you add it just as the pancetta is done? Advise, despise, criticise…

What surprised me, aside from the fact that they were both totally avoidable losses of life, was how unequivocally Michael Rose and Julian Thompson blamed Wilson for it, and their criticism of how the entire South Flank was unnecessary and detrimental to the conflict. It’s worth noting that the only military commander involved in the war not to get an honour the following year was Wilson.

He’s stared working for the Sunday Sport.

March 36th 1970, good and proper?

His hand?

Oh, so now we’re specifying quantity, are we?

Aye, possibly? I thought the other lad, a medic from Manchester area , was very honest- his description of the absolute hell on the Galahad, and his very candid talk about how PTSD affected him. There was a lad a few years above me in school, who lived only 100 yards from me in Killy, who died out there- Colin Davison, in the Marines. He was a lovely lad, very quiet and the last person you’d expect to join the Army, never mind the Marines. What a waste.
