The Loose Association of Wargamers

A couple of neighbours are ex-Scots Guards (albeit from different eras); their nickname is "The Surrey Highlanders".

I confess the only thing I know about Surrey is the joke told to me by a Surrey girl, that Surrey girls didn't do orgies because of the number of thankyou letters they would have to write.

I shall make a note of that one! There's an old Etonian comic called Ivo Graham who describes how he was "slow off the mark" sexually, because he spent all his time at parties mentally composing the thank you letter he was going to write after; on a couple of occasions, he claims to have found a quiet room with a writing desk and completed it before leaving. Very popular with mums, not so much with their daughters.

Sounds like I was wrong, the Surrey Highlanders were not brigaded with the Essex Light Infantry.

South essex you mean.

No, the Essex light Infantry, regiment of the Hardly Standings. From Norf Essex.

Sorry, but Norffessex is one word.

Shortened to The NoSex Regt of Foot.

Dialect is a weakness of mine.

Immodium solves that.
