That's funny, some of the prettiest women I've ever met were in the USA. Is it just a case of the 'grass being greener' I wonder?

A lot of US women seemed to dig my accent - I'm no Brad Pitt but they gave me lots of attention!

I have a strange accent, Very South Welsh but with a hint of English thanks to my mother growing up in England and Germany. She was an army brat and moved from place to place. I pronounce some words quite differently to my friends, they find it pretty funny.

This is guy has a similar to my accent, the recordings from a different valley about 15 miles away so it differs mines little stronger.

Even Arnold "Arni" Schwarzenegger is dubbed in German by some native German actor to hide his genuine Austrian-German Alp mountains accent.

What do you think - who can save the world?

My Mrs says if I get drunk my long-dormant Northern English accent comes out. I went out on the beer with some old mates a while ago and she claims I came home sounding like Christopher Eccleston. I've never noticed it.

Found a picture of the "old" Manot Krav in use during the 1973 War of Attrition.

The big difference is it was packed for 5 troops, not 4 (5 being the number in a Sherman Tank crew, which had not been used by Israel for 20 years). Also one of the big entree items was a can of Turkey w/Noodles, which can clearly be seen in the picture alongside the sardines and loof.

Donaldjcheek your Jan 2009 pic..
