Thank you Kiltrash!

Absent any objections, I'll post a new picture if we haven't heard from Copenhagen by 0200 CET. (It's either that or send Admiral Nelson in . . .)

But it has not made past Yeovilton yet. From there it is all cans and strings to just beyond Okehampton. Then it is cleft sticks and runners as far as Truro.

No wonder we nearly lost the desert war if you think this is Tobruk.

Captured on film. The tragic moment just before Monty put his thumb to his nose & wiggled his fingers and Operation Market Garden failed.

These people have all come to see me and applaud my famous victories in several theatres of war? I am indeed honoured!

Nah, they think you're Robert Baden-Powell and want your monika on their copy of "Scouting for Boys"...

Scouting for boys? It was all just lies spread by that rotter Patton...
