  2. I think TDD serves 'IN', else he'd get very wet Interesting concensus so far, seems the Beeb was wrong ( shock horror ).

  5. Serious point of grammar, on which I would like the opinion of the naval types, ( and anybody else with a point of view ). When referring to ships of the RN is it correct to say "HMS xxxxxx" or "the HMS xxxxxx" ? In just struck me as wrong when it came out on a BBC news report the other day, and it's also used at the end of the James Bond film "Tomorrow Never Dies". In my view the first of these is correct, as you have to consider expanding the abbreviation, such that "I served on Her Majesty's Ship Temeraire" is correct, and "I served on the Her Majesty's Ship Temeraire" is incorrect. What do you reckon TDD, et al ?

  11. Has anybody decided to throw their lot in with the tories on the basis of Osborne's bogus give-away announced this morning ? "Here's our plan for dealing with the deficit, we'll pretend to save you some tax".
