Particularly loved the two songs at the ending. I'd forgotten Dire Straits did that one. Sometimes life is quite curious when it gives us our own soundtrack. Fabulous read, UN.

I thought you're handling of the real David Barker was a classic lesson in man management - people could learn a lot from that alone. On another subject, wouldn't mind some your, ahem, expertise being meted out on Quentin Davies - the fuckwit minister in the MOD after his recent comments on the resignation of Major Morley .. what do you think Andy Another interesting interlude Norman - my the Mintons of this world do lead complex lives don’t they.

If you wanted bigamy, dodgy dealings and violence, you had to step across the Surrey-Hampshire border into Aldershot (a place I'm sure you've been well-acquainted with in years gone by). Joking apart, this has been another fascinating account. I've often thought, over the years, I'd like to try my hand at this or that line of work. However, yours is one where I know I wouldn't even get off the starting blocks. Great song, btw. I now feel the need to dust off my Dire Straits LPs and see if the turntable still works. Best wishes, D. Hi UN,
