Most crimes have a period when they are viewed as still being a crime and someone accused of a crime has to stay hidden until that time has passed and there's no need to worry about having to go to prison or to defend oneself from being falsely accused.
Only murder doesn't have that kind of period in some countries and in other countries murder has a period of 40 or 50 years, if I'm correct.
What time period are we talking about for calling someone a mother ****er before it's more or less forgotten?

Well, whatever names were called in what must have been a very heated and energetic “discussion,” he at least still purchased Fire & Rubble. Times have changed, and while we don’t have to use or accept such language, we must understand that many people see those terms as simply emphasizing their statements. One of the women I worked with used it all the time, even though I’d admonish her with “You know, profanity is the mark of a weak mind attempting to forcibly express itself.” She’d just laugh and tell me to go “F” myself. Regardless, we were still a very good writing team because I didn’t accept them as insults.

Exactly. Sorry for the confusion. I gave him the wrong name and ts4ever it is.
To avoid confusion just refer to the foul mouthed lout as "Tyne". Like Diana Ross, we are still waiting for him to apologize for calling Steve and Charles "mother****ers".

Normally I "Target Smoke" "Pause" for 5 seconds. "Reverse" one AS and "Face". Providing you haven't got a super fast Loader it should expend just one round of Smoke.

It is annoying when you find something interesting on the net, but then when you try to find it again it has either disappeared, or you can't quite remember how you found it in the first place. It happens to me quite a bit with local history.
Hopefully one day someone will find an answer to your query.

It always makes me jump when I'm sat watching my infantry walking along and then, BOOM! a Crab triggers some mines. Luckily being a cautious player despite having the Bren Boys out front I still didn't take it for granted that the road behind them would be safe.

Runs over to the gramophone, cranks the handle and puts on "I'm Still Waiting" by Diana Ross. We normally rely on you for this kind of stuff John.
I was never able to find a Major Foster or Forster serving with The Hants. The only Major Forster I could find served with The Berks in WW1.

After a bit of a hiccup on the real life front, I finally started the first mission today. A good looking map. It just remains to be seen whether it will be littered with dead Jerry or dead Canucks by the end.

The first mission is quite a slog I'll admit and the casualty parameters harsh. Did you try concentrating on just 2 of the objectives or all 3?
I haven't started yet. I've just read through all your notes and impressed by the details that you've put into them. Once I've rearranged my "z" folder from my last campaign I'll get slaughtered, oops, I meant cracking on with it.

This really needs someone rubbish to lose it very soon, like me.

I suspect that it will end up on Bozo and Carrie's wall in due course.

Watched all those videos above and enjoyed them all. Naturally there's going to be content that's below par or simply doesn't appeal to you personally. Note sure why that fact would be noteworthy
Sorry, it didn't know that any opinion contrary to yours had been made illegal. Most remiss of me.

Watching bicycles being dredged from the canals is major attraction in Amsterdam.

There has in fact been a deluge, and for the most part they are terrible. Which is a shame, but it reflects the way things have gone in recent years. Just have to sort the wheat from the chaff. Ho hum.

LOL Okay, just for you ... I will wet my paint brushes once more ...
I remember seeing this one in the old Jeu de Paume gallery back in 1980. It went missing when everything got transferred to the Musee d'Orsay. Now we know why.

Cuz, they couldn't understand a farkin' word that 'arry Pollitt said. And needed some posh gits to translate. Know wot I mean John?

It's been more than a couple of years and Lille is dead on, the waiting has been and still is brutal.
I got stopped by Customs once in Lille, there weren't brutal, but it did mean that I missed my ferry back to Limeyland. I've hated the place ever since. Ooops, sorry, wrong Lille.

It still amazes me that people who post stuff like this on the net think that they are telling us something new. It might be new to them, but it isn't to anyone who has been reading books for the last fifty or so years.
"Wakey wakey" as Billy Cotton used to shout.

@Warts 'n' allWould you feel better if I played as the Commonwealth in a battle?
I do have a week of vacation coming up, I could make that happen.No. I just hope that your next video sees a return to the high quality commentary that slipped a bit in the last one.
Limited firing of smoke?

Hahaha. The didn't call me "Ironsides" cuz I sat in a wheelchair in a TV studio all day. I knew a thing or two about armour in my time, young fellow me lad. And now me and my mate Raymond Burr are off for a pint.
