    I think you are wrong there Oggers old chap. Her Maj can, at a whim,
    have you dragged out into the street and shot. Teflon and his Merry
    Men on the other hand would have to go through the lengthy and somewhat
    tenuous process of enacting legislation if he were to wish to do the
    same and no sane gummint would even consider doing such a thing unless
    they were corrupt to an extent that made the Old Guard Soviets look like
    play school assistants.

    <fx: considers last statement>

    Hang on, as you were, forget I even mentioned it.

    I agree with this and it does stretch my republican sympathies a lot
    more than I feel comfortable with.

    So it is more that it is hard to be apathetic, when you really can't
    care less.

    Indeed it must. FOT's were a little thin on the ground last year

    Eventually she'll **** off back to whichever newsgroup she favoured
    before she came here and she'll be able to thrill everyone with her
    tales of how she stood up to the biker bullies.

    Because that is the minimum entrance requirement. I worked this out by
    the power of thinking and looking at the relevant army web site. There
    is no point to address, unless you think that the minimum standard
    should be raised.

    Yeah, but I didn't have a working bike last Sunday afternoon, and I was
    too busy gorging myself at Cadbury World.

    You appear to be arguing your corner on the basis of pedantry.

    It doesn't become you.

    First you get the last, then you hawk it round the boot shoppes in the
    city. I think you will find all of them satisfactory. If it is good
    enough for City Types and all that shit...

    You might care to try Kensington Market, if it is still there. It is
    where we used to go to get our custom made platforms when such things
    were popular but get the last made before you do anything.

    Let's not forget that your opening salvo on this matter endorsed the
    idea that all the officer training course at Sandhurst entails is the
    following:
    Having quite openly admitted absolute ignorance on the matter, you've
    since resorted to pedantry to keep it going. Are you really that bored?
    There's a 10R in your garage, ffs.

    Then I suggest you read the army web site and look at the graduate and
    further courses as well. I hadn't realised that the lowest level was 2
    As, my friends from the forces are grads, MBAs and PhDs.

    I thought that it was given the friends I have and their qualifications.
    So I have found out. I am happy to admit that I didn't know the lowest
    entry point was 2 As.

    As far as I can tell, she wandered in from the shed which, as far as I
    can tell, is reserved for people too shit to even post to the caff.

    No, but IIRC, there's are courses (and companies) for those that come
    in with minimum entrance requirements and another for those that are
    grad level.

    Mind you, this may have changed.
