Congratulations Seigy, you'd probably have enjoyed our Royal Marine/ combined sniper school (or whatever its now called) with its I guess slightly different approach.
:cheers:


What do you mean by diferent approach?



"All men are created equal, then some become infantry."

"Those who beat their swords into plowshares will plow for those who don't."

Mostly spelling things their own way (snoiper, tahget, roifle, etc.) and insisting on using metrics only half the time.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.
