Sat with young Miss flea79 this evening watching the highlights and I struggled to explain in terms a child could understand about war and service
Utter folly of the past is still being repeated today and doubtless will continue to happen

Why are you so proud of yourself for not singing it... Just dont sing it and dont brag about it. You dont half remind me of that knob James Maclean who refused to wear a poppy, then brag about not wearing it. Have your own little private demonstration by all means, that's your choice, but do you really need to let us all know you are un patriotic.. WE FUCKING WELL KNOW YOU ARE.. TIT... Calm down chief you'll have a stroke............ Didnt quite make Chief, but thanks anyway...

Many of us ex Royal Navy guys on here knew Andy Larkin, who in 81 was the youngest on HMS Sheffield that got sank in the Falklands. Andy survived, but several years later took his own life. RIP Andy, and thanks for your service. Yep, I grew up around the corner from Andy, we used to walk to Sea cadets together before they moved away, he was a year younger than me, and he joined the Sheffield after me, saw him a few times after the Falklands at matches and around town. RIP. Did you go down south mate. I just missed it, I joined Jan 1983...My 1st 4 are D197
