I'd reply with something cutting but I think I'll just copy and paste that post to a certain English Rose and let her take care of it.

Hi Ally, somethin' up?

Hey guys, have you noticed how some of these girlies try to muscle in on our manly debates? Personally I think they should know their place and stick to waiting on their men.

Agreed, except in the case of Debra Arif. If she stuck to 'waiting on her man', half of the males on this board would have to learn how to do their own research...and I for one could not stand for that!

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

Some truth in that Tom!

Forever is always here - it never began and it will never end.

Blimey Stewart, what are you on? I wouldn't mind some of that.

Hey, Stewart, Them's fightin' words!

Hmmm, where's my big dog? Hang on a minute, I'll call him.

Cheers, Archaic

Archaic,

Glad to see you're feeling better. Now be a dear and make us some sandwiches.

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

[Archaic]

Yes, Dear

Hi Tom. Thank you.

Would that be knuckle sandwiches???

I'm a big bruiser ya know, that's the only kind I make.

Best regards, Archaic

Looks like I'm in real trouble now. I was already hiding up with my tin hat on after Ally's response - looks like I've done it now. Back to the foxhole...

PS Great to see you back.

Questions re: Helmets

I noticed that the men seated in the front have their helmets under their chairs, and if you look closely they are being held upright between their ankles. Was there some regulation about not setting them down on the ground?
Or is it just so the helmets face forward to show off their insignia and don't tip over?

It seems a bit odd to me; I wonder why they aren't all just holding them the same way on their laps?

The fact that they are being held in different ways makes the picture look less formal to me; does anybody agree?

Best regards, Archaic

From the positions of their arms, it looks very much like some of the men at the back aren't holding helmets at all. The arms just aren't in the right positions for that.

[Archaic]

Hi, Robert how are you?

I agree. The fact that the men are in so many different positions, with & without their helmets, makes it look less formal to me.

Best regards, Archaic

PS: Thanks for your get well messages.

Hi Bunny

I'm fine. More important, so are you.

Of course, the helmets between the ankles might be covering extremely short policemen. I seem to remember Stewart saying the height requirements had been reduced a bit.
