    Sorry. I apologise. You're correct it's a bad oversight. Your mum and I had been at it all night and I was a little tired. Won't happen again.

    Thankfully we have a total pedantic Tw@t on hand to do it for us

    Respect to your brother for the Afgan tour. Seriously.


    But beating each other up and stabbing each other with forks..? Bit stupid, TBH.

    WHS. Completely.

    Even now, 5yrs after they've been out of there, some of my old colleagues wont talk and still go quiet. I was lucky enough to get out before it went pete tong. Good luck to your bro, tell him to keep his head down and come home safely.

    (And assuming he's Army, he'll be smiling after the Army win today! )

    We are close, if I ever need him he is there like a shot (I remember him driving half way across southern England to bail me out of Yeovil cop shop one night), we are just dickheads to each other when things are going well
