I'm so disappointed - I took some time off, and you're still in Fifth.
You two are on a roll today!
I've posted some pics, but have no hope of catching you... pretty intense afternoon today...

...I think I'll help myself to a cold one...

That would be the Swedes. Of course.

Finns... I wouldn't say our morose friend is typical. In general I like Finns. They tend to have a dark sense of humour. I like that. The works of Arto Paasilinna are good examples.

Norwegians are just humble. The humblest people on earth. Nobody is humbler. We are simply the best. At that, too.
I noticed that when I was there, humble to the point of insanity they were!

Except Bill Millin.

His officer (Lord Lovat) ordered him to play, and Bill said that the war office had banned the pipes on the front lines, to which Lord Lovat responded that it was the English war office and they were Scottish so strike up your pipes!
Germans didn't shoot at him because they believed he was crazy, he was also the only man at Normandy to be wearing a kilt; his father's from the first world war.
Hey I remember that bagpipe from The Longest Day! nice movie.

Hey who said where about the post-like ratio, and mentioned one who had big numbers?
I might have found out who that was (fs999, 4081 posts to 3807, but he often shoot food, so he's a cheating cheat that cheats! )
