    .... a shell casing from a 105mm artillary Light Gun engraved with his regimental crest which actually I think is pretty cool !!
     

     
     

     
     
    Casing stands 33cm (13") tall, weighs just over 3kg (~7lb) and has just become a family heirloom!

    So I was out drinking with some work colleagues in the middle of Glasgow last night. It was a leaving party and we start drinking at half 4. I was meant to leave for the half 7 train but when I'm having a good time drinking it's difficult to stop so I stayed a bit later. By midnight, I was mortal but still had enough sense to get the last train home at 10 past 12. I was rushing for it but got on the train just in the nick. Everything going to plan so far...
     
    An hour later, I'm woken up by a train conductor in Kilmarnock, 20 miles from Glasgow and my stop. He tells me to get out of the train and it takes me a couple of minutes to realise what's happened. The train leaves and I'm all alone. I phone my wife to tell her and she's, expectedly, not very happy. I go try an exit, padlocked. I try another, padlocked. I've never been to this station before, there's loads of doors and they're all locked. I tell my wife I'll phone her back. I find a small wall I can climb, but the road below is a 10 meter drop.
     
    At this point I'm panicing. I'm running all over the train station and I can't get out. I phone my wife again and she texts me the number for the train station's head office.
     
    "So you're stuck in the train station?"
     
    "Yes."
     
    "Are you sure?"
     
    "Yes."
     
    "I'll try and get someone to you but it may take a while as it's a Friday night."
     
    I sat there waiting on a seat for 20 minutes and I thought I'd go for one more look. I'm sobering up so I'm starting to think about things a bit clearer. Before I was running like a headless chicken but now I'm like Inspector Clouseau and I follow the Way Out sign. An exit, unsurprisingly, awaited me. It was beautiful, one of the best sights I've ever seen. How the f**k I missed it the first time I don't. I think I saw the sign the first time and looked at the door right next to it, rather than carrying on past the sign like you're meant to. The door was padlocked, probably because it was a store cupboard and drunk me isn't very clever.
     
    I take £50 out of an ATM and flag a taxi.
     
    "Where you going?"
     
    "Darnley."
     
    "Where in Kilmarnock is that?"
     
    "It's not, it's in Glasgow."
     
    I then spent 25 minutes driving home with the taxi driver, telling him my tale and trying to convince him I'm not an idiot. He stops the meter at £32 telling me that I've suffered enough tonight and he'll give me a discount for giving him a laugh. I get home, wifey looking not best pleased. I get a phone call 10 minutes later.
     
    "Is this Euan? Are you still stuck in the train station?"
     
    "No, I went out the exit."
     
    "Great news, enjoy the rest of your night."
     
    I then went to bed and texted Diddums to cheer him up on nightshift. FML.

    The polite version of my response to your question Tam is - "That caused me soooo much grief last time due to my woeful gameplaying skills I think I will respectfully decline your invitation to participate this time around"

    Got another problem now. When I reply to threads my reply box looks like this

    The font looks like the old Courier style, all the formating options are greyed out and unusable, but when I post it's like normal
    I know I've probably clicked something but I just can't work out what!

    Okay...I'm the "old guy" so let me interject some HOPEFULLY wisdom into this thread or not lol. Anyway...
     
    First off...I did not read past the first post from Dave, why, I didn't need too do so. Because I see 40 replies, I didn't read them, yet I bet I know EXACTLY what they all say....it was Dave saying to stop the childish stuff and then 40 replies saying sorry Dave didn't mean it. Am I close?
     
    Listen, I have ran 3 websites for the past 10 years....been there done that basically, seen/done it all. BUT....get this.....I can tell you with 100% certainly I know what makes a website stand the test of time (hence why my sites are 10+ yrs still to date) and what makes a site last.....members that care/like it. Just like I see most the guys here do, you all for the most part care, so seriosuly lets all stop the kidish BS and "he said/she said" and "here's why this guy left Blah blah fuckin blah"....know what, be a man. Enjoy the site, enjoy the friends, enjoy the outlet Dave has given us. Seriously I'm 42 yrs old, when something happens to me, one of the things (maybe second or third) that I think of is posting it here...why? Because I consider all you guys friends. So I want you all to know what goes on in my life.
    Guys like Dave, Tommy, Jay, Doc, Adam, even Fracee hell I could go on and on. I even though I have never meet these people in person I still think of you guys to share shit will, if I didn't then I would not even be here.
     
    So I'll be the one to say this. Stop all the childish bullshit. We have a great site here where we can all enjoy, Dave provided it to us, at his cost, so lets repay him by at least showing how we like/enjoy it because I bet he would enjoy that.
     
    That's all I got to say.
