Did anyone else read the write up in todays Sunday Times regarding this?, it was a good read, also saying about the time Chris Terrill spent in Afghanistan with the late Tom Curry. If you can get your hands on a copy well worth a read!.

Its in the Sunday Times Magazine, I know what you mean about there being so much rubbish in the paper. Well worth a dig around the bins to find it!, you may be lucky and find a bit of old pizza somewhere in there as well!
