Rogue Gunners letter to the Sunday Express
I have just posted a letter on the Sunday Express article about the Falklands War. It seems the TV stations and newspapers are full of reporters flocking back to the Islands. I want to go back to the Islands, but I have to rely on the charity of groups like SAMA(82) To some of these twenty something journalists going the eight thousand miles to Port Stanley will just be a bit of a jolly and a time to catch up with some journo colleagues in the pub. They just don’t get it , how can they? Its like them going on a day trip to visit a cemetery to look at the grave of their family who was killed in a car accident. One journalist recently told me to smile, fucking smile I tell you they are clueless. I feel like I have lost some of the fun of doing this Blog, once the anonymity is gone it’s a different ball game. I was considering deleting the whole Blog, but I realise that it would be selfish as some of you actually do read this. I was asked recently if writing a book wasn’t just making things worse? Well my life couldn’t really have been much worse with or without the book but I know what they mean. I have been suffering extremely bad night terrors recently but the shrinks would say that’s to be expected I suppose. I think I will start another Blog anonymously just to vent now and again as I cant really do it on here now. I think due to outside influences I have been forced to shape certain aspects of this Blog including having to remove certain posting. what has really fucked me off is being `IGNORED` that’s one of my pet hates, ask Ian Dale. Yeah and for those people that have asked about the comment “Giggle Giggle I thought Id find him hanging from a rope” that was what my ex wife Bex said to her lover when I texed her and told I was putting our baby daughter to bed, something that I will never really recover from, pure Evil from a woman you thought loved you. Sundays are fucking depressing aren’t they. Rogue Gunners

PS, If your wondering why my profile at the Express says Lancaster its because Barrow was not on there drop down list, the town that built Britians first nuclear submarine and HMS Invinsible HMS Sheffeild, Hermes ect.....
