Sorry, most I know in Welsh is Cymru am byth.
Or, even, Cwmru am byth.
Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Anything by Beevor is usually good; Stalingrad is superb!
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

Just started Waterloo by Bernard Cornwell. Got it for my birthday back in January. Interested to see if he has anything new or original to say about a fairly thoroughly explored subject.

"Bronze Age Military Equipment" by Dan Howard. Interesting (if it's a period you're interested in!) but not exactly a page turner!
