We call them the TA (Territorial Army) over here BTW.

On Guard For Thee - even I can recognise the words from 'Oh Canada' - I've sung it often enough at Dieppe Day services when I was a cadet instructor, at Wisborough Green near the original HQ for the Canadian forces.....and stood at the salute when the standards dipped for the last post. No more though as most of the veterans are too old to make the journey now.

Yep Yappy, still hanging around, just don't post too often due to time etc as the kids have homework to do on the computer.....I manage to keep a watchful eye on you ex-colonials just to make sure you're not getting up to too much mischeif!

As for being old and forgetful --------------------------- I've forgotten wwhat I was going to say next------senior moments happen every day
