    Congrats.

    Not hi-jacking your thread. When I was in Lebanon in '88-'89 we were awarded the nobel prize for peace

    I'm a Nobel Peace Prize winner, lol.

    im not sure...

    this is what it means says on the net about it..
    It serves as the second highest award for gallantry, immediately below the Victoria Cross.

    The CGC is awarded "in recognition of an act or acts of conspicuous gallantry during active operations against the enemy" performed by all ranks of the British armed services.

    Brilliant, so will I be reading about you in 'Soldier' magazine!.

    I believe British army awards are worth X10 that of any other army. Your the finest professional army/soldier in the world IMHO.

    Congrats on the recognition for your dedication to duty and your fellow military personnel.
    1. Once a cheat always a cheat!
    2. YES, SHE can get pregnant the first time!
    3. NO, PULLING out IS NOT a RELIABLE method of Birth Control. DAMMMMIT..... Wrap that shyte UP!!

    Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.

    For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.

    What the mind can conceive....the body will achieve!
