Dougie you are a disappointment, it took me 10 months to write, a year to rewrite and edit it and you have devoured it in hours really.
Couldnt you make it last a week. Anyway I am glad you enjoyed it.
The reason I wrote that book is that every sorry assed bastard that ever went to Vietnam seemed to have sat down afterwards and wrote a book. These books are all 'Poor me, look at what that nasty old war did to me' books.

Oh and Dougie parcel arrived safely in the mail a few minutes ago.
When I read those sorry exhibits of the writers art I began to wonder if we had all attended the same war. So I said to myself I will write about the war as I saw it from "a hunters point of view". Hell we were all volenteers there is absolutely no point in going around moaning and gnashing your teeth about getting a rough deal.
Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone.
Sorry I have just realized I have hijacked this thread.
