I'm with you Deepwaters, joined the Navy at 16 - with blonde hair, blue eyes and very white skin - that means I could be sold to the Mama San (sp?) in every port as her personal plaything.

Happy days - beats the whole war / dying thing.

Disclaimer: None of the above is true and is made up just to sound good on the internet.

They let you join the Royal Navy at 16? Who'd you join under, Admiral Nelson? How old ARE you, anyway?

He joined under Captain Crunch

Two feet (24 inches?); No problem.

Are you suggesting what I think you're suggesting?

Is there something about ogres that we don't know?

Never heard a female ogre complain. Must be true.

They still do. The UN go nuts at us for it, as they try to give the Africans a row for having under 18's in their armies.

Pretty sure a few 16 year old Brits died down the Falklands in 1982. Nowadays they dont get deployed to 'hot spots', so shouldn't get mangled till they are 17. Although you can't really set an exocet anti-ship missile to 'child-friendly'.

Didn't serve with Nelson, but his dad was a right b*astard.

"Checks calander", I be 36 of your land lubber years. Which means I joined up 20 years ago

And going back a bit on topic, I don't actually watch the concert dvd that much. It's not that I don't like it - just prefer the tv performances a bit more.

Yeah, we get inches confused with millimeters.

This is getting a little too weird. Can we get back on topic?
