I can't believe it ! A poetic piece without a single insult ! Congratulations and WELCOME ! As long as you put your arguments without calling me a string of abuse names and making references to my naiivity because you imagine I haven't been shot at or whatever argument you were trying to use, I will treat you with the same respect. For the record, and I don't want to get into a long discourse about this,You mentioned them so I replied. the SAS is closely involved with gathering intelligence in various theatres, which was my involvement when I was young. I can only speak from personal experience. Yes, I have been shot at. And, after six years, when I wanted to leave, they asked me to stay, so I must have done a good job being shot at Hahahaha!! Maybe things are different now. I don't know. But now that you have proved that you can join debate in a mature way, please continue that way and my "banter" will stop forthwith. It was only banter. Good fun, but it doesn't go anywhere in a debate. Keep going mate as you are. I'll have respect for a different viewpoint but without the bash !! Now I really must rush off. I am not running away !! But duty to wife calls !! I'll be back tomorrow Regardsjohnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07732685907482691660noreply@blogger.com
