58+30-21=67  Good Morning everyone! Close! But Halday did say "I can reveal that I am about 30 years older than you" I was actually born just before WW2, starting school in 1943, I was in the Navy in 1955, By 1957 was I qualified in Torpedo and Anti Submarine Warfare and I was at Cyprus during the Eoka troubles, and off the coast of Lebanon when Feisal was killed. I trained as a Diver, then as a Naval Medic won the coveted (still got it!) Green Beret at Lympstone in Devon home of the Royal Marines. The rest of my service years was spent with Marines, mainly in Aden and Lympstone. So now ou all know more about me than I do about you lot!! |

JP>>> Two of my machines are not working at the moment, trying to fix them Figured you were having a problem, judging by your stats the last couple of days. It also appears you've added a machine since my last comment about trying to keep up. The pressure is on.  Things will have to wait a little bit |
