    I'd have cared a teeny wee bit if it had been shinty. Proper man's blood sport.

    Such a pity that the International Paralympic Committee have, so far, refused to accept being a member of the RAF as a recognised disability or I'm sure he would be representing Team GB shortly.
    In my day, it took more than a third class degree in macrame and basket weaving from some concrete college to become an officer... you had to have a little breeding, some style or a lot of money!

    Surely even the RAF propaganda turbine couldn't make a story out of the Rockapes guarding the EFI?

    Would it have some great tips like, "'It's really hot so I pour water over my trousers and pretend that I have lagged myself so that the evaporation prevents prickly heat attacking my groin. That way I don't scratch myself and can concentrate looking well hard with my mirrored sunglasses and 17 weapons systems!' said L/Cpl Gruntbollock"?
