    I have served my country though, all my life. Paid my taxes that have covered the salaries of all those in the services. You can send your thanks here if you like or via a private PM - I'm easy either way

They also confirm their intention to continue to work constructively and in good faith with the Independent Commission, and to use any influence they may have, to achieve the decommissioning of all paramilitary arms within two years following endorsement in referendums North and South of the agreement and in the context of the implementation of the overall settlement.
    ...is complete bollocks then? I must admit, I did at the time.

    Mind you, referenda in the UK aren't binding...
