visited countries

Thanks to some fairly mindless googling, I came across the UrbanArmy blog by Gordon Cotterill at Poplar, which led me to the blogs of some friends/other people I know - including Nick Hanover's

One of his posts makes reference to his visited countries and invite the reader to find out theirs! Can you tell what is coming?

high council 2006

So High Council 2006 is over almost before it has begun. Seven days after the official welcome to the High council, a new general has been chosen.

Current UK Territorial Commander Commissioner Shaw Clifton is now General-elect, ending months of speculation. Yet the speculation will start all over again in the coming days - who will be the new UK TC? who will take on the role of Chief of the Staff? what of Commissoners Gaither if he isn't asked to be Chief again?

I will keep you posted as and when I hear and for those who want to see the official news and webcasts click here

the dogs, the job and the game

Happy New Year all! I know it's a little late for the Gregorian New Year - so for
convenience sake I am going to be Chinese for the next few days and thus be early with my "恭喜發財" or "Gung hay fat choy" for Sunday.

I hope this year of the Dog is everything you are hoping for!

This year holds many exciting things in store, not least the start of my training as a Police Community Support Officer with the Metropolitan Police, which starts on the 13th of February! 4 weeks at Hendon College is an exciting but daunting prospect!

I also discovered in recent days a game called "The Game".

For those who know how to play The Game, you have just lost!
For those who don't know, welcome to The Game, as per rule 1

To know The Game is to play the game. You can never stop playing.

Hopefully see you and/or speak to you within the next weeks!
