I think they give you a list that you get once you get down there but i've got most of it before i go! You still need some bits and bobs, like a bucket and cleaning bits, but you get them fr...

800 Marines being sent to Iraq
Apparently going to be on the front page of the Sun on Thursday (watched Newsnight).
I know it's in the Sun so chances are it's not true but i have heard rumours also that 42 might be going?
Anybody got any information (Mirror/Sun journalists need not reply).

I think you do learn a lot of history etc when you are down there, i saw loads of posters on the wall when we had a look at foundation block. But i suppose it is good to le...

Think i'm gonna go for the G100 which only comes with the resin straps as far as i'm aware!

http://www.discount-watches.co.uk
as the other site (without the - ) wasn't so cheap!
