Hi Keith. Good to see you back.

On a serious note regarding your post, the idea of home by Xmas came from somewhere, origin not accurately known. The point some on here were making was that regardless, nobody "above" issued reality checks to quash the idea, encouraging recruitment based on the idea, which is widely recorded, especially in letters held by IWM.

Look, that was boring. Can't we revert to throwing shit at one another? Far more fun and in the final analysis, as likely to reach a consensus.

Anyway, Terribulus is my hero now. He knows how to growl and become indignant. Far easier to get him "researching" too. 😇
