Good show Major! A jolly fine example of a Guardsman you are. And by the by Sir, did you receive that parcel of caviar and cognac that I "appropriated" for you on your entry to the Regiment? Gracious no Sir, you do not owe me anything! Though you might draw up a brief thank you note to the colonial taxpayer...chortle chortle. [:I]
