Plans to evacuate Queen if brexit goes ugly are ready

[TestMangler]

Don't cry fella. It's ok. It will all be better in the morning

Not for him it won't. He'll still be Spudbhoy. The guy who watches football wearing his plastic paddy uniform and singing about supporting the IRA, the Brighton bombing and a little bit of '**** the Queen' thrown in, then when the football stops, he puts on his medals ( ), his union jack boxers and sings about his love for 'The Union and The Crown'. More to be pitied than scolded really.

Low hanging fruit to be fair.

Did 13 years, 1976-89. Long enough to help win the Cold War.
I decided to move on once we had taken care of the Russkie threat.

Posted for posterity ..... we should all be thankful to spud boy for saving us and helping to win the cold war (by sitting in a shed doing nothing).

He decided to move on, don't ya know, once it looked like the army might be called into action in the Gulf War (Gulf War (2 August 1990 – 28 February 1991)). No coincidence that he abandoned the army at a time it needed real men.

What a plastic soldier

Yes, I suppose you should.

He decided to move on, don't ya know,

Yes, I was required to give 12 months notice of leaving. I did this in July 1988 and left in July 1989. A full year before the first inkling of trouble in the Gulf.
Sadly I was never issued with a crystal ball, just a rifle. The one that helped me and the rest to defend the West until the Cold War was all but won.

But I really wish I had opted to be a Big Game Hunter like you............................Tell us more........

Nope, not a hunter. Not sure lion meat tastes that nice, although wilderbeast and zebra is tasty

Pubic lice don't count as big game despite what the mods & expratts tell you!

That's a relief for Spuddy.

"lampposts and pitchforks" gets exactly one hit on google, so probably it's not generally used at all.


Lamposts

Where, if anywhere, does the quote, 'if the American people knew what we have done, they would string us up from the lamp posts,' by George H.W. Bush come from? - Quora

Pitchforks

Torches and Pitchforks - TV Tropes

Never said used at the same time - but if some (incredibly well read and educated person) says lampposts and pitchforks you will know what they mean
