Reutlingen to be exact. Small-ish town about an hour south of where the Mercs are built.

Indeed.

It worked as a charm ! No breaking through the line. of course, some unsportmanslike nations attacked where the line was nonexistent. What can I say ? There's no civilizing certain people, even when they brew good beer and make good deli meat. And to think we are close related ! Oh, the humanity....

Sometimes, it's a wonder Britons survived as a people. But well (time for another Monty Python reference), we all know they won at Pearl Harbour "because Drake was too clever for the German fleet !"
The reason the Britons have survived, good sir, is because of our superior fortitude, tenacity and the ability to drink tea regardless of the circumstances, don'cha'know.
P.S. Well done on the AAR trekaddict, 'tis very good and I am enjoying working my way through it.

Nope. My street is in the south-west part.
As for the article: There's a black sheep in every service. ( or eighteen )
To quote my favourite band: "We won't get fooled again!"
i'm probably looking at your house right now... creepy no? To quote a band i also like 'I can see for miles!'
i just thought it was funny, all our sailors getting high together. though that thing saying about 12% of civilian drug tests are positive? sounds a but high. my old physics teacher used to try to scare us by saying half of drivers on the road are stoned. ...ok

Not kreepy at all, as I didn't give you the full adress.
But you are right, I heard similar stuff too.
And btw, having a hot cup of coffee with The Who from the speakers is a pleasant way to start a day.

Us continentals prefer Coffee and for the rest there are always headphones.
To your edit: That would have been incredibly cool indeed.
would have been better 30 years ago. they're a little bit old and drug addled now, i understand.
