An entire delight. Thanks for that, boss. Even when I was young there was a richness of soul to the old boys that appealed to me. That’s more true now than then.

At 1:01 for a few seconds, the sitting dude checking the reporter’s ass out as she walks up the corridor could really well be my (now late) cheeky ol’ Uncle Fred.
TD: I know it’s an old thread but I got here from your highlights post: have you got anything here from the 2011 Founders Day Parade, where Prince Harry visited? I’ve got a great photo of my Uncle talking to Prince Harry there (completely ignoring orders to not attend after major, major surgery).
Just to thank you for the links TD. No Uncle Freds there unfortunately. I won’t dig this thread back up again, but thanks for it [I'm getting sentimental in my old age].
