  3. Tankies get upset when you suggest you ask the people who live in the Falklands where they want to be.

    The island belong to the people who live there, and for their sins they've chosen to stick with the UK.

    This is the classic British design of pillar box, or free-standing postbox. Iron, cylindrical, bright red, and this one was in Stanley on the Falkland Islands.

  17. For #ThrowbackThursday here's a shot from 1982 when my family - like so many other families in #Portsmouth - headed down to #Southsea to see off the task force setting sail for the #Falklands following the invasion by Argentina. That is the aircraft carrier #HMSHermes in shot as our family was friends with another, the father of which ran the boiler rooms aboard.
