Walked the stunning iron-age hill fort Maiden Castle near Dorchester this afternoon. To think Roman Legions fought here in AD 43 🙄
Maybe Sgt Apone of Aliens fame was on the landing craft collecting all their weapons. Running ashore, they could be heard shouting, "What are we meant to use, harsh language" 😳🤷
I see that the RN has massively increased the number of ratings needed to check that all of the F35 intake bungs have been removed 🤔 😳 🙄 😕😬
Masters of the Air don't listen to the criticisms of the CGI or Brit bashing. What you have is a superbly made drama series, quality cast, and well scripted. Incredible scenes give you a real appreciation of the courage and sacrifices made. I can't recommend it enough, fabulous
So, as we reflect on 2023 and look forward to 2024, perhaps it's time to consider important decisions. Black Jack or Fruit Salad 🤔😉😊
Please spare a thought for any military personnel serving away from home at Christmas this year. It's always a difficult time. On a tour back in the day, as is the tradition, we served Christmas dinner to the soldiers and junior ranks. It was appreciated, but we all missed home
I have always been impressed by the Dutch. Rather poignant on Christmas Eve......

It's a slippery slope from watching Where Eagles Dare a few times to buying a toy cable car on eBay 🙄 I'm not sure who to blame 🤔 @WeHaveWaysPod or @nikbrown10 😏👋
Must be the weekend.........'Broadsword calling Danny Boy, Broadsword calling Danny Boy' Who needs to change mags when you have not one, but two MP40s 😉🙃
Just received this Ghurka kukri from a friend in Kathmandu, Nepal. It's an incredible piece of history and reminds me of the Ghurkas I served with. 'Kaphar hunnu bhanda marnu ramro'
It's fountain pen day today, and it's always a nice moment when using one of my original 1950s Parker 51 fountain pens. An elegant, if perhaps old-fashioned, way of writing ✍️
It was great to see @JohannZarco1 win his first Moto GP race in Australia. So well deserved 👏 👍 We have missed his winners' back-flip 😊 Also, a shout out to @SylvainGuintoli for always keeping the faith in his fellow countryman 🇨🇵 Bravo 👏 youtu.be/5slGI1ndGCA?si…
It was great seeing @holland_tom on Ch4 Live Sunday Brunch talking history @TheRestHistory and podcasts. @WeHaveWaysPod gets a mention, too 👍

May 10, 1940. Today 83 years ago. Here is a little thread. This year I am thinking of Ben Swagerman. He was a observer/commander on a Dutch T.V Bomber. On the 10th of May 1940 he and his crew fought against the German invaders in his already obsolete bomber.
