Holidays??
Hi Yall, is everyone on holiday? Where does one go on holiday now in the UK? Blackpool looks like a rundown slum, so that's out!!! Europe looks just as bad and what can one say about the US? I must say the Hawks in Canada chose a great place, for me ruined by the cold and the Trudeaus!! Bill you see...

Re: Libyan Floods
Hi Yall, Bill, sorry about the last line about Morocco in my last. Just watched the timeline and got the update on Libya. Apparently Morocco was hit by 2(?) earthquakes on Friday the 8th Sept not floods. Again many people were dead, injured, or missing. On the 12th Sept Libya was struck by devastati...

Re: Libyan Floods
Hi Yall, Bill, me being an atheist I would agree with you about what you said in para 3. No great love for the Arabs, though at my age, going on 84, I have a tendency to not generalise. There are good and bad in all cultures. If one looks into the Koran, it's teachings, I think the word is 'demands'...

Hi Yall, I thought you all had gone missing!! What do you think of the flooding in Libya? No doubt the Climate nutters will be blaming it on, what is the latest title for their Theories, Climate Change? They keep changing the title so often after their predictions NEVER, pan out. The news here down ...

Re: Lady Lions
Hi Bill, my father, who was in the Royal Navy, was divorced from my mother when I was 3y.o.(1943).

Re: New Community Page
Hi Yall, Bill, know what you mean, I have continually gone through mine, and even with the help of Grammarly, I still get punctuation errors. Did you go to a publisher after you finished your excellent telling of the Falklands War? If so, who was the publisher? If not, how did you get it onto the In...

Hi Yall,
Bill, how far did you get into that book of mine before you got too bored with it? Your comment about it being good example of 'a normal soldiers life' put me off distributing it further.

Both were fantastic and exciting jobs. Do miss the excitement!!!! I had seen the photo of Paddy, Alfie, Phil abd Dick...
