Must try harder.

I don't take the piss, I simply collect it from willing donors ;-)

This was flying in front of where I’m on holiday just now. Thought it was quite apt.

The last dozen or so pages of this thread have been really weird.

Maybe we can acknowledge that a "man who put his dick up other men's arses" actually saved possibly thousands of servicemen's lives. If it was not for Alan Turing it is conceivable that the UK would have fallen under Nazi rule. For those who do not know, Alan Turing was the genius who broke the Nazi enigma code and helped break the stanglehold of the U-Boats in the Atlantic. He was gay, ended up being chemically castrated for his crime of being gay.

Maybe he deserves a month just for him, as I think all those servicemen that survived the war owe him a huge thanks.

Ha, could have been. No it’s beautiful Northumberland.

Aussie armed forces personnel are far better paid than ours - then you have the weather and the lifestyle - so as well as fucking our farmers over in a bid to sign any post Brexit deal we have probably hamstrung forces recruitment - and its a fast track way to Aussie citizenship - thinking of joining up? Fancy training in cold wet Catterick or Pirbright or as an alternative Townsville Queensland where the lowest temps are in July when it averages 20 deg's - I know what my choice would be

Brits allowed to join Australian Defence Force from 2025

New Zealand nationals will be allowed to join from July while recruits from the UK, Canada and the US will be allowed in from next year.

People don't join up for an easy life and nice weather.

People don't join up. That's your problem. Crap conditions, crap accommodation, crap equipment are probably more relevant than crap weather.

Might as well pick fruit.
