Thanks for the response anyway.

I have heard many horror stories from the Angola. I was called up for
military service after the Angolan war. If I was older, things might have
been a bit different for me.

I'm guessing that you are younger than James, Thomas, Stephen and me.

No problem, but I'm not that young any more. I could have served my
military time while Thatcher was still in place. Just delayed it for a
bit of study (and my country is the other side of the channel).
Previously, in centuries rather in years, crusade-fighters would turn to
monastery and become monks. I believe a part of the cause was the same
lack of words.
A bit of Shakespeare (Macbeth): "it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
Be kind to your neighbours, and do not try to rule further than your
doorstep.
