Thanks mate - yes it does.

Joined MP.net way back in 2003 when I was looking for pics to illustrate a presentation I was writing and stayed for the duration, most of it as one of Hood's Mod team. Then swam over to the Mess when MP.net sank...

I'm a Jock by birth but moved around a lot and I've spent longer outside the country than in. Joined as a 'child soldier' back in the 80s, went through Rifle and Recce Tp before they allowed me to spend a few years climbing things. Then I picked up a commission and drifted out of the mainstream Corps into the ISTAR world. Went to all the usual holidays in the sun/rain/snow except the first Gulf War - which I watched from the comfort of a hospital bed. Also did time on exchange postings in France and the US. Been out for 12 years now so I'm a proper stinking civvy!

I share your taste for whisky and bikes so we should get on!
 
G'day y'all! Used to be on theMess and hopefully the community in some shape and form will survive here. Am a military historian, though I didn't serve myself. Always interested in political discussions, and history stuff.
aha, I still see the avatar with Christmas hat hehehe welcome mate
