Anybody got any of this little lot, they'd like to unload, please? Paypal is locked and loaded!

Yes, I have those Steve. The COMBAT seres is great. They give a quick overview and some good illustrations. They probably need reading in conjunction with other relevant books or internet articles.

Hi Steve, just wondering if you're still looking - I've a couple I'm ready to move on, are you interested?

All best

Comment above led to one of my personal grates. "Lock and load" is a commonly used term albeit wrong. If a weapon is locked it can't be loaded. Load and lock makes sense but because of common usage doesn't sound right. Unless someone knows better.

Oh well. Whinge over.

Language does change. A gay party?

Starting all sentences with "so".

However, there is also a lot of misunderstanding because language is so complex.
I will be more pacific. Micro orgasms?

Verily?

Now I need a cup of expresso to get over both that and an American historian I saw yesterday talking about Roman calvary tactics. That made me cross.
