    Oh the embarrassment!

    My brother (the one who was a major in 1 para) phones up tonight - very unusual as he is usually up to no good. He is working 100 yards from me - being filmed for a documentary learning to be a trader. http://news.hereisthecity.com/news/b...ews/7843.cntns

    I do hope he does not make too much of a 2@ of himself.....

    I was on 'Record Breakers' once. You know, the one from the 70s/80s with Roy Castle and Norris McWhirter.

    Boringly I was not breaking any records - I was in the crowd at a watersports event and they were there filming someone doing a ski-jumping world record attempt. They filmed us cheering.

      I think I might have been in a restaurant in Bristol not 300 yards from where they were filming an episode of Casualty once. Maybe.

        Did they get a shot of you during your glam rock phase?

          Me and my mates were on swap shop once. We were mooning behind Cheggars on his visit to Lancaster. I never saw it, but apparently it went out live.
          I am not qualified to give the above advice!

          Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

              If you had turned around you could have called it 'Cheggars Plays Cock'

                  He already did that by becoming a Para!

                    A few years ago there was a piece on granada about some pub owner in Manchester who allowed weed to be smoked, a la coffeeshops. He got raided and the cameras were there, some sort of tip-off.

                    Anyways, these two birds were going in and one of them was the missus. She got home a couple of hours later, red faced 'you'll never believe what just happend'
