The Scene:
Experts with newscaster on CNN 24th March. 3 American experts including
a former 2-star general from delta force,1 ex-SAS and the network's
anchor:

Footage of Iraqis giving themselves up.

Anchor: We have no verification as of yet if they are British or
American troops taking these POW's

Yank1: Only Americans wear boots like that,they're American.

Yank 2: I agree,and they appear to have American camouflage jackets.

Yank 3 (delta force bloke): I'm not so sure,there's not enough
up-close detail to tell 100%,we'd need some close images to tell make
of boots and jackets and maybe the shape of their Kevlar headgear.

Ex SAS man: Call yourselves experts? Since when did US forces use an
SA80 as a standard issue rifle? Their DPM's can be bought as can boots
so you're chasing rainbows if you want to identify them from their
clothes.

Anchor: I think you're right.

Ex SAS man: Course I'm bloody right. Any one with half a brain and
basic military training worth their salt should be able to identify a
British soldier by his rifle. Not to mention the fact they're covering
all points properly, not shouting "woo yeah" randomly, and haven't
raised a flag in direct contravention with orders.

At this point 1 of the yanks walks off stage tearing his mic off, and
the anchor says "I think we can safely say the soldiers on your screen
are British. Now for these messages".

Breakfast Meetings

Just got into the office in Oxford after meeting the lovely dotty for coffee. Well it was supposed to be coffee, but I persuaded myself to have a "Joe's Breakfast" of eggs, bacon, sausage, mushroom, toast and freshly squeezed orange juice. Mmmmmm! I know that I'm a pig, but Dotty ordered hers first and I it would have been rude to just sit there watch her eat (my salivation would have been off-putting)

I guess I'll just have to skip lunch won't I?

It was great to meet another LJ friend and it means that I've got someone to meet up with whenever I come down to Oxford - yay!!

I suppose I've got to do some work now :@(
