    I hardly ever take my phone anywhere these days as i find it more of a hindrance than anything else. if it was not for my family's insistence i would not have one at all, It would not be the first time i have lost my rag with one, in fact the last one before this one ended up in the canal after multiple attempts to answer a call by swiping the screen failed. As for this alert test, seems pointless to me. just put a post on any social media outlet and it will be spread in seconds.

    Have things really changed since back then, The army was paid for by, and used to protect the interests of massive corporation's, This wasn't about National security, it was all about the money, Pretty much how i see it still being today.

    Background India was considered a critical component of the British Empire. Its protection was therefore paramount. Given Afghanistan’s important strategic position between India and the Russian Empire, the East India Company was keen to ensure that a pro-British emir was on the throne there. In 1837, fearful of a Russian invasion of India via the Khyber and Bolan Passes, the British sent an envoy to the Afghan capital, Kabul, to gain the support of Emir Dost Mohammed Khan. Initially, the emir was in favour of an alliance with the British. But when they refused to help him regain

    The UK first went to war in Afghanistan in 1839 until 1842, This also involved Russia, This conflict was about more than it would appear. Have a google and make your own minds up.

    Years ago i was on guard for a week at Weston on the Green. If you don't know, its where The parachute courses do there drops, It was civilian glider place at weekends, There was a club house with a kitchen, At the side of this Building was a big skip, the one that has double doors on it. Early hours one morning i can hear banging coming from the skip. I walk up to it and peer inside with the old green torch, This f***ing great head pops up, i about shit myself, this head was huge, After the initial shock it became apparent it was a Great Dane that belonged to the farmer over the back.

    Was Told Some horrific stories and pictures of how the Republican Guard were slaughtered whilst retreating in column's through a pass with the Yanks on one side and Us on the other. One American Abrahams tank destroyed over 40 T62`s in one battle,

    I believe Putin`s plan was to take Kiev and put in his own government but the Wests intervention stopped that. His next option is to take land in the south to create a buffer zone between Ukraine and Russia, As for trained, i watched a documentary by a journalist who was embedded with a motor platoon. They found a Russian tank parked up in a small wooded area using a drone,. They tried with both 3 and 6 inch motors multiple times, Not even close despite having the GPS coordinates of the tank, The tank commander never even bothered to move his tank, Lol,

    We trained them though, After the Russians withdrew, We left them to there own devices, They went back to the poppy trade after we stopped financing them, They then became the Taliban, So its all our fault Lol,

    The lens containing the cross hairs has moved, On older scopes this can be sorted by unscrewing the cap off the back of the lens.

    He did this, They did that, Makes no difference, the road has already been ploughed to privatise the NHS. Like i say on most topics, follow the money to see where its all heading. Ever wondered why vet prices have gone silly over the last decade, Follow the money...... Private equity giants are facing calls for an official investigation into their buy-up of vet practices amid rising prices and animal welfare fears. More than half of the veterinary practices in the UK are now owned by six companies, three of which are private equity-owned.

    Most need to remember that the "Common Market" was originally just a trading arrangement for the free movement of fresh produce within Europe and the UK. This is what the British people originally voted to join, Only later was it allowed to grow in the Monster it has become today, All without a vote being put to the British public to see if that's what they wanted. When they were finally given that vote a few years ago, The people spoke but half of the politicians did not want to listen, The United States of Europe with Germany at the Helm was the vision of another famous German.

    Where did i say anything like that?. The EU needs our goods as much as we need there custom, How this happens can be as easy or hard as the politicians want to make it, Follow the money would be my advice,
