@fesshole @TheRealLizLee!!

My wife has an irrational hatred of eating noises and makes a huge deal out of even the slightest sound I make when eating, so whenever I'm alone I'll choose the noisiest thing I can find and eat it in the noisiest way possible as a way of standing up to her behind her back.

@willp6666 Seconded!!

I’m a fat bastard, Moo Hatch burgers are immense 👍

@combat_boot @Always_Boots @RCRBuck 😂 so very true!

@Always_Boots @RCRBuck I’ve decided that when we have brought this into service & to prevent laser scanning, the plug-up & PACEX will require comms platoon to spend a week with sharpies colouring in the outside of fibre. And then repacking it.

Russian developers deploying 10km+ fiber optic spools highlight a timeless truth in warfare: the action-counteraction cycle is alive & well. No matter how advanced a technology, system, or TTP may seem, humans will always find ways to adapt, counter, & innovate. Often, the simplest solutions are the most effective, proving once again that perfection in war is fleeting. Modern conflict is a constant reminder that ingenuity, adaptability, & resourcefulness are the ultimate equalizers.

@CharlieJSDavis Good luck Charlie!

The Prime Minister has called a General Election for July 4th. I’m standing to be the MP for Eltham & Chislehurst because our communities need an energetic MP focused on the future & ready to tackle the challenges facing the country. I know that MP is me & I am raring to go!

@ThePoke @TheRealLizLee much like our children

@battleguide I remember as a kid being able to explore every inch of the site. No paths. No railings. You could get inside every bunker as long as you could fit. H&S strikes again even when there was no need.

Ponte du Hoc. It was as bad as I expected.

@nicholadrummond What about 1 Avn Brigade. You have them in the joint context but a key part of 3 Div.

Assuming a two division model, this is what I hope British Army 2030 will look like. 1 (UK) Division becomes the Expeditionary Force, a wheeled rapid reaction division designed to reinforce NATO worldwide. Built around Boxer and PM Medium / Light. Additional equipment purchases are Boxer Cavalry variant and HIMARS. 3 (UK) Division becomes the Manoeuvre Force, a tracked combined arms manoeuvre division, designed to operate in partnership with NATO allies in Europe. Built around Challenger 3, Ajax, and PM Medium / Light. Major additional purchase is an IFV based on Ajax (assuming Ajax is now fixed). These two elements would require 50K personnel.

@MilitaryBanter How are you going to prove if you’ve been the subject of this breach and prove harm has been done

@APhilosophae @TheRealLizLee the full story

@CilComLFC @TheRealLizLee because I can’t sleep I have gone down the rabbit hole

🔥 BREAKING: Kate Middleton’s lawyer has reportedly said he believes she is DEAD, adding that he will be forced to report on it if he doesn’t hear from her soon. He also specifically mentioned Queen Camilla and said she "needs to be looked into". Wow! 😳

@TufferB @TobleroneFrank @TheRealLizLee where was this last year?!

1/5 This is Austin Hehir, MM, of 2SAS. A real life John Wayne. I first told his story in March, of how deep behind the lines in Italy Austin scared the pants off the Nazis by coming at them, a revolver in each hand, contemptuous of his own safety. His family have been in touch...

@TheRealLizLee @stan_okl Ah yes. This may well explain that.

@stan_okl @danpsmith3 Thai spicy! That might have been what that chef was saying. You cannot do Thai spicy

Can’t believe some absolutely cockwomble has cut this tree down for absolutely no reason. ⁦@TheRealLizLee⁩

@Mr_Andrew_Fox Guilty as charged

Learned an excellent new acronym today: TWATs Referring to those people who work from home Mondays and Fridays, who are therefore only in the office Tuesdays, Wednesdays And Thursdays…

@WhittakerHelen @Mr_Andrew_Fox Worryingly I now look more like a WO or an LE with the amount of grey hairs and scowl marks, frequently get mistaken for them.

Ah, memories. On a Para smock, the rank slides for officers are on the shoulders. Other bits of kit, it’s usually centre of the chest. Was at RAF Brize Norton one evening and a Flight Lieutenant (one rank down from me) walked past me without a salute. I thought “Meh, let it slide, it’s bad light, she probably didn’t clock the epaulettes, no need to be a dick about it.” Then from behind me… “YOU! PARA! Fucking stand still!” Station Warrant Officer comes storming over to me with his stick. Gesticulating with it, he goes off at me along the lines of: “That was an officer you just chinned off, you slack lot need to get a grip of yourselves, unacceptable, etc etc, give me the name of your sergeant major…” Me, points to shoulders: “Woah, Warrant, stop stop stop. I think you mean “sir”, it’s you who owes me a salute, and it’s that Flight Lieutenant you need to be having this conversation with. Any further questions?” He was left fairly speechless, bless him. It all ended amicably and we had a good chuckle about it. A good lesson about the challenges of operating in the joint environment…

When I build my LR this is how it will look.
