  1. That generation willingly signed up to go and fight......my father enlisted as soon as war was declared. Could you see the same response happening today?
  2. None of them did! Did they all have to sign an oath of secrecy?
  3. I couldn't be bothered with the hassle!
  4. No.......if you'd read the link you've have seen this: "Besides 2nd Battalion Gloucestershire Regiment, 56th Brigade contained 2nd Battalion South Wales Borderers and 2nd Battalion Essex Regiment.".
  5. Not really no......virtually no memories. And that generation never talked about their experiences.
  6. Where were those pics taken Bob?
  7. Me and the wife always wanted to......but like with everything, life has always got in the way. Both our fathers were on the D-Day Landings......her father would never speak about it, all we knew is he drove tanks! My father was in the Royal Glos regiment and landed on Gold Beach. He was deployed as recon and got captured by the Germans. Then he saw out the rest of the war in Stalag IV-B. Contracted TB and was invalided after the war......dying in 1959 at the age of 43. We will visit these places one day.......before time runs out.
  8. It's excellent! All the Harlan Coben stuff is!
  9. Where's @busabeast's ailments? Cos I remember him saying he's got a fucked up arm and injured ribs! And of course he's struggling with the disability of being unable to keep a job for more than a week!
  10. I got flu, sinusitis, and still recovering from the Hernia op.
  11. When do you get the GS?
  12. I can remember that......must have been about 15 years ago Scott? What @Sir Fallsalot would give to be able to say that!
  13. Sinusitis is an infection.....it's something I've suffered with all my life.
  14. Just picked up antibiotics from the doc as this flu has gone into sinusitis!
  15. Weather's getting milder here....... ......not that that's any use to me. It's coming up to 6 weeks since I've been out, and there's no doubt I could get back on with no problem. But my life wouldn't be worth living if I did......so I've got to sit this one out as well. What you guys doing?
  16. Did it take the mullet as well Scott?
  17. Upload it to YouTube and just paste the link in.
