....or lived in garrison towns, I suspect. Give me the normal unfit run of
the mill drunk to contend with rather than the highly trained lethal army
drunk any day. When I lived in Colchester people used to dive for cover when
the Black Watch came to town - a particularly venomous collection of small
statured Glaswegians. The only regiment to display the same legendary
ferocity the Ghurkas possess, only in peace time. Then again as they were
Scots in England perhaps there was some peace accord back in the times of
Bonnie Prince Charlie that they never got around to signing.
