OK I think I have it now, Thanks to Shaz for the help I\'ll buy you a guinness if we meet at one of the shows.
Cover your monitors from the kids here I am.
Me in uniform, I\'m on the right with the least amount of gold braid
And this is me again with a paint brush.
No wonder I\'m getting low scores if I\'m holding 10mm scale giants this far away when painting them!!!!!!!!

Well without giving away a life storey and sending you to sleep.
I was being awarded Commander-in-Chief Fleets Commendation for my involvement with HMS NOTTINGHAM in July 2002 when it found a rock off the coast of Australia. No I wasn\'t driving the Ship I am the Chief Shipwright on said Ship.

Thanks Shaz,
Depends on how you look at it really though, a lot of it was played down and most of us out of the twenty that got awards should of got awards that were a lot more meaningful for the involvement we all played in the incident. I was origonally up for the QCVS (Queens Comendation for Valiant Service)

Almost as famous as the submarine that tries to go under the Isle Of Skye!

Yep nearly as infamous as fishnets and not the sort ladies wear either.
I think the best comment was posted in the Times or one of the other papers and went along the lines of
\"This rock has been reported as 200, 250, 300, 400 and even 500 miles off the coast of Australia so clearly the damn thing is adrift and moving about so can you really blame the Captain for his Ship hitting it if the exact location of it cannot be decided upon?\"
Something like that anywaylol

That\'s pretty much my neutral expression, as a result I get people telling me to \'smile\' and \'cheer up\' all the time. Henceforth I shall grin like an idiot at all times
That was just a wee jump we built at the end of the holiday, we were too knackered to go for big long runs by that point
We brought food and drink and had ourselves a picnic in the blazing sunshine in the Alps. Wish Scotland had snow and sunshine like that.Cheers - Rab.
It\'s not that he\'s Irish, my mother\'s maiden name was O\'Toole so there\'s some Irish blood in these veins too, more that he seems to have his head up his arse most of the time and wouldn\'t be able to see where he was going on a snowboard
I object, some of my best friends are English... well maybe not \'best\' friends, more people I quite like or at least some people that I know. Yeah, that\'s it, I know some English people that I don\'t hate
Actually Cornwall\'s nice, good people, great weather, even if you do call us \'emmets\'.
Cheers - Rab.
