Apostrophe corrected - but anyone who writes a story as good as this can be forgiven the odd typo, spelling or grammatical error I think.

Email sent, and advertised on the various facebook Sapper pages too (though, three days before AvN it will get pushed back with requests for tickets and sapper tent bands)
There is no question so obviously stupid that it prevents one supposedly intelligent human from asking it of another.
Likewise, there is no human problem that cannot be solved by the correct application of the appropriate quantity of high explosive, the suitable quantity being derived by the Formula P, where P = "plenty"

Few of lifes problems cannot be solved by the liberal application of High Explosive.

I agree that it's a cracking good story, but seriously, if you'd like an editor before it's committed to paper, I'm offering to help. Originally Posted by davidflies

Boldnotold - many thanks for the offer but I have just edited it myself and it will be checked again before it comes out.

Just to let you all know that there will be 6 signed hardback copies for auctions - 2 each in aid of H4H, SSAFA and Army Benevolent Fund.
There will be 50 ONLY signed hardback copies available - some already ordered, and a further 200 hardbacks. Once these are gone they are gone - this will be followed by the softback edition (when all hardbacks are sold), then CDs and downloads. But electronic copies are way in the future at the moment.RCT(V) likes this.
