I am with isaneng.I dont want a penny discount because I formerly served in HM Forces. He lists many people who are at least as deserving as "veterans" but receive no such favourable treatment. If any ex service people are in financial distress they should certainly be looked after, but please dont include those of us who are not in need. And I certainly dont ever want anyone to "thank me for my service". Save that for the poor buggers who had their legs blown off in Afghanistan or are suffering from PTSD. Someone said I dont need to have one, but shouldnt bleat about it. Sorry, but JB is all about bleating, and I just think the whole thing is a bit tacky, so I feel quite entitled to bleat

P & N - do you not see the irony of praising the virtues of your card because it gets you some sort of discount on cruises?
