    ooh, i am getting a strange sense of deja vu - you regs said exactly the same thing last year, and the year before.
    "What kind of Terrorist are you?"
    "I am a terrifying....Terrorist... Are you scared?"
    "No.."
    "God dammit! Oh, err, i mean Allah dammit..."

    "so where did you train to be a terrorist?"
    "At the Suicide Bomber facility"
    "Oh really? Nice Place?"
    "It was..."
    "Why, what happened"
    "New guy...."

    Thereby proving that the truth never changes. Anyone in the TA who turns up to their civvie work in Army uniform should be beaten to death with a stapler.

    Or can we staple them to death with a beater? Anyway, most companies declare their support of reservists & TA whilst stating in most contracts that they will oppose through the courts any legal activation.

    Edited to add: So what's the point?

    Toss idea. The scruffy zeppelin of a capt with spray-on 95s and stubble I saw last year was hardly an advert for anything. I had to suppress several urges to give him a corridor debriefing.

    Do you have to pay a pound?
    The kid had to pay a pound the other day to ruck up in civvies.

    Wy on earth would you want to pitch up to a civvie job in uniform?

    We should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
    As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.
    This contrasts sharply with the actions of my grandfather who, on the declaration of war immediately left his wife and children and pissed off, first to France, then North Africa, Italy, France (again) and finally Germany.
    The shame will always be with us.

    If you pay £2.50 you can take Mousetrap in too. And watch Willow in the assembly hall after dinner.
