    Providing the RN doesn't have to do anything silly, like marching, then I'm sure it'll be a good weekend! (Although I think MLP, BR's and Sol's antics with the Advance Recce Party are taking things to the extreme...)

    Some people are only alive because it's illegal to kill them...

    Your lips are moving, but all I hear is 'BLAH, BLAH, BLAH...'

    That is a bit of a limp salute. It's no wonder the lesser services think it's still rum, bum and baccy.
