speaking of killing, how about that bowls match yesterday?
Love the iPhone fiddling and beer swilling at the beginning.
I mentioned to a friend the idea put forward that we don’t talk about what troops actually do during a war. His response was that I should read The Junior Officers’ Reading Club: Killing Time and Fighting Wars. I didn’t know about it, but now I plan to read it.
Yes, I didn’t realise how rude that looked until I saw the vid.
Yes. Whatever happened to good old-fashioned manners? Love the new site BTW. WD. KUTGW.
