Those were the days my friends. Preferred the kebab van myself lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming you are a Brit... You have a reputation for going out in nasty conditions and somehow coming out smelling like roses... And your shown country of birth is Scotland? You are, I think, reknown for being even a bit crazier and stouter than your basic Englishman? I hope this does not alienate anyone here... That's just my opinion from things I have seen and read...

I am Canadian by birth, but parents are American. My knowledge about World War I is rather limited, compared to World War II where my dad served and I have read so much...

Popular Post Kuya John Posted July 3, 2019 Popular Post Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) Just recently got back from Shakespeare Country, beautiful villages and places to visit, but the more you travel towards the south of England, the more expensive food and drink becomes especially eating in bars and restaurants. And that's straight from the horses mouth Edited July 3, 2019 by Kuya John 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
