Am i the only one to spot the irony that BrettieAngell aka THE ROCK GOD posted a piccy of Stonehenge

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say

Ah, that song brings a lump to the throat everytime i hear it .. and considering its my ring tone then its all the bloomin' time :)
 
The Forerunners of my regiment:

When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wonder'd.
Honour the charge they made!
Honour the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred!

Yes, the Charge was a failure and should never have been attempted. But the bravery and unquestioning sense of duty makes me so proud to call these men comrades and countrymen.
 
I've got a couple of quotes to add

"And Crispin Crispian shall ne'er go by from this day until the ending of the world but we in it shall be remembered. We few, we happy few, we band of brothers. For he today who sheds his blood with me shall be my brother. Be he ne'er so vile, this day shall gentle his condition, and gentlemen in England now abed shall think themselves acursed they were not here, and hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks, that fought with us upon St. Crispin's day!"


"Once more into the breach, dear friends, once more; or close the wall up with our English dead!"
