Hey, I never criticised the guy for going, it was certainly very good for the moral of the troops involved, I was just amused that some people couldn't accept that there was any PR incentive, a very naive viewpoint whatever your political leanings (I cannot remember who was blinkered and I have not got the will to look it up, I'm knackered and pissed off, some SOB broke into my car today).

I also never described it as "just a piece of PR" (if that was me you were quoting).

I was attempting to offend no-one there, just a bit of levity, not aimed in anyone direction. No need to get tetchy mate.
