The message from "Alan Holmes" contains these words:

When I joined, I was courting a girl whose father had been a stoker,
unfortunately he had been killed, but I thought, being a bit of an
idiot,
that it would be quite romantic if I was a stoker as well, however
when I
arrived at HMS King Arthur and was asked what I wanted to do, I was
told
they weren't conscripting stokers that day so I would have to chose
something else!

You're tryng to tell me that you actually served on a _ship_? (or was
it a boat?)

Apparently not everyone who served in the Navy got to serve aboard
a ship/boat... That doesn't stop them making a whole 'song and dance'
about it, of course...

I take it you know the difference between a 'ship' in the Royal Navy and
a
'boat' do you?

In the words of the once greatest net nanny "I think not"

Know something? Not only do I not _know_, I also don't CARE!

A boat, a ship, they're both the same to me...

What on earth are you wasting your time answering this idiot for!
