What ho chaps! it appears I've been booted upstairs as a full general. Hadn't noticed until today. Think that calls for a tot of spit and polish all round <:-P
Congratulations General.
Yes! Absolutely congrats! General DP!
Uh - I suppose us mere field ranks will be mucking out the stables again?
Well done sir!

Not until I can see my reflection in my boots.
Congratulations Sir, looks like the drinks are on you
Pints of Old Pickle's Gumption all round then.
Congrats! I've had my pints, now can I have my glasses, fighting trousers and a steer back home please!
Tickety-boo, there.
Congrats, Andy. :)
Cheers - Phil.
See the war box is as bad as always at selecting senior officers.
Congrats

Says an Lt Gen!
Well Lem, if he makes sufficient derogatory comments about the Welsh and our Continental Cousins he will be sure to win promotion. :d :d
Remember, competence is dangerous and suspicious. Gives an officer unwarranted ideas. Just to be sure, promote on privilege not ability!
Well, at 6'1" I'm every INCH a general.
The very IMAGE of a MODEL of the MODERN Major GENERAL?!
*draws breath to sing
"And NO singing"
And no twerking either.
Rats! and after all that practice.
I can't twerk, just not enough cushion. Or physical dexterity. Or inclination.
I will, however, SING!
*draws breath to sing
Aargh! No! Not the singing again! :-$ ;D
Anyhoo, congratulations, Mr Dour Puritan, on your promotion and outstanding service to the Forum! =D>
[This being an auspicious event, and as spit and polish is called for, it behoves me at last (or should that be, "I am behoved?" - where's FK when you need him?) to refer to you not by your informal name but by your formal name. Perhaps now, your moniker should read, "The General formally known as Dour Puritan!"]
If you were behoved, wouldn't you be a cow?
If you were behoovered, you'd be free of dust and nicely vacuumed!
This week I shall be mostly wearing a combination of black and hodden grey as behoves my dour position.
I'm not a General ... but with a few more random posts I might make it
Leman is wearing his combinations - Make mine a double. Got a taste for dirty martinis recently.
