Ow happy days, brings back my army days that one does.
Derry in 77 and Bleek in 79, I do love the old rebel songs from both sides.
You do know what three things it takes to make a great Irish rebel song
don't you ?
1- brave
2- outgunned
3- dead
Got a great one about when the SAS took out the gang in Gibraltar,
also this one which I think every squady had

As per the quote on the comments page I also think its so ironic that for
many years, the IRA was funded by practically America (not blaming
anyone)?, and it only stopped when America declared war on terror because
then the IRA had no were to get their guns/Bombs From.
By the way, If I met Terry Prachett ( lives just down the road), I'll tell
him that you like his books.
