    Couldn’t agree more Fran. The terrible irony is that a huge percentage of those commemorated by memorials like that one were feckless young lads themselves, before the War led them to become heroes.

    Not for a second would I wish such a fate on these vandals, but as well as the public humiliation you suggest, they should be made to watch documentaries like the Great War and They Shall Not Grow Old until they understand the sacrifices those young lads made for them.

    I just don’t understand what makes a person decide it’s ok to damage something that isn’t theirs.

    Many years ago some yobs were driving round our village sports field. Second time we pulled a hefty log across the only vehicle exit, spooked them with torches and whistles. It was a ****ing triumph.

    Thanks for all the birthday messages. You’re all a decent bunch on here, even when you are clearly wrong and disagree with me! It’s like an extended family and I’ve found some good mates.

    I was in a restaurant in Paris and ordered the 'Napoleon Chicken.' When the dish arrived, I was surprised to find very little meat on it, and it was mainly carcass.


    I asked the waiter why and he said: “We only use the Boneypart.”

    Happy belated birthday, Fats! Sorry I’m late, had some personal issues over the last days and never got round to sending best wishes. Hope you had a great one!

    My wife just asked me whether I love football or her the most.

    I said, “Open your legs and I will show you.”

    So I nutmegged her.

    As there is an extra day added every 4 years, does that mean we all end up celebrating our birthdays late?

    Oh, happy birthday, number 7....though it was probably a few days ago.
