I’ve been to a wheelbuilder to have my T500’s wheels trued up this morning and I pulled over to listen to the service on the radio at 11 O'clock

Just watching the remembrance Sunday parade past the cenataph in London and heard a man saying how he lost his only son whilst serving in Iraq, he said every day is a remembrance day for him, very emotional.
As for the scum who beat a 98 year old ex soldier half to death in his home this week for £10, lets hope the £30K reward leads to them being arrested and jailed so they can get the same treatment in prison.
Time we brought back sentences to suit the crime???
Look, my paintwork hasn't got "Fish scales" :x they're "Dragon scales" right!!! However, after some thought, I will accept "Black Marlin" or "Swordfish", but definitely not "Haddock" or "Cod".

I have the greatest of respect for the men of the Great war.
Both my grandfathers participated; one of them was gassed and for the rest of his lifewould struggle to breathe properly. He died in 1978, a very quiet man who never spoke much of the war. i knew him for 20 years of my life. my fathers father also served and was a different character altogether, To listen to him, you would think he was in charge1. he died in 1993. jioned up also when he was 16 yrs old. very brave men, as they all were/are.
Respect./

Well said Steve, unfortunately in the nanny state we live in if they are ever caught they will be offered expensive counselling and let off with a slap on the wrist :evil: There is something wrong with our country at the present time and I’m ashamed of being British

Agreed, I say and eye for an eye, hang em high.
Prison should be bread and water and one blanket, the Government could save millions of £.

There are to many do-gooders in this world,
They should all mind their own business.
