Well no, youre not a military type. And no-one with half a brain
thinks more or less of you as a result.
Personal opinion? The military arent my thing; I couldnt cope, as my
reaction to being told to do stuff is invariably fuck you. But Im
jolly glad there are people around who can. This doesnt mean I give
them full respect just because of that, coz Ive met some regular army
fools, but I do rather like certain military types Ive known; they have
a similar fuck all silly laws, make your own mind up, do the right
thing whenever you can attitude to my, and I suspect your, outlook.
This doesnt mean to say youre wrong, or that La Hopkins isnt making
herself look a prize tit (anyone else getting strong Des associations?),
but it doesnt mean youre 100% right either.
But then you knew that anyway.
Ive just realised Im sort of 50/50 on this issue, whereas youre
firmly into black & white territory.
You and Oggie are right; Im a total cunt. Arse. The Bear brand is
worthless these days. Ask for your money back.
