In defence of one of our posters who lives in Holland or Nederland, Amsterdam is not Holland as London is not England, probably the same ladies in those pink windows though. It is Friesland, Groningen and Limburg, while in Germany we would shoot over the border to Valkenburg Hollands mountains, well they did have a chair lift and the best custard tarts with rice I ever ate. Many times when they knew we were forces they would not let us buy a drink, the 51st Highland Div were the ones who took that part of Holland from the Germans and they remember to this day, wonderful people, wonderful country.

I believe that they do wear silk undies on antartic missions.
Geoff, sounds mad but I'll give it a bash. I'm bonkers like that

Where's Becks? Has she done a Shirley Valentine or lost her laptap? She promised to keep- us posted while she was on holiday.
llaptop not laptap
Spanish waiter seems favourite . He may grow tomatos.
Why do we need parachutes ?
The forkers football team is going to do a sponsored jump to raise funds for a new goalkeeper-have I not mentioned this?
Have I missed that post as well ?
Count me out . I get a nose bleed at the top of the stairs. Don't like heights.
You shut you eyes and think of England-don't worry about the blood or injuries there will be plenty of ambulances waiting
