Hi all,

Morning men. Started reading "Quartered Safe Out Here" last night. If you haven't read it yet you should soon.
+1 it's a great read.
I didn't hear of that book before Simon and Martin...
Is it about Pacific (and Aussie troops)?

It's his experiences in the Burma campaign with the Cumbrians as the British advance down the country. It starts just after he arrives in Burma after Imphal and Kohima and after most of the jungle fighting is done. It's different as well, it's written by someone who was (at the time) a private soldier.

Well, I guess that is the good Lord's sign to you that it is time to move. [:'(]
Seriously, that's really piling on for you Nik, but you do need to take advantage of the cutting of the last tie and head somewhere where you have a support base.

Did you ex-GF take your pickup truck or crash it into a train?
It does sound like the perfect time to move on...

Brad is right . . . a pickup has to be involved somewhere.

Morning Tithe...[:@]
I used you name in vain on another Zero vs F4F thread. You were the one who gave me the original guidance that these threads were a bad idea when I first joined the WiTP forums.
Hope this does not anger you... [:D]

Bored out of my mind at the office, waiting on paperwork, and don't even have my laptop that I can play AE on. [8|]
