Al,
As Rich pointed out you surely do want to come up Trumps.
I was too old for Vietnam...
To impress your British friends you need a pipe, walk with hands clasped behind your back whilst looking thoughtful, use words like "well done!", "cheers", "rather", do NOT refer to the Queen as Betty and the current PM is not Winston Churchill, but Tony Blair.
Rich,
In my youth (during the reign of Charles V)I was in England and the sun shown every day! Since I left it seems that it rains all the time especially in Weston Super Mare. Coincidence?
