Much greener pastures
One unnamed official suggested applicants had not been deterred by the relatively low salaries on offer, telling the Times: "They're doing it out of idealism.

"They seem genuinely to want to do something to help this country, instead of going for a job with a much higher salary."
This is why England will always be one step behind us. The only way an American would volunteer would be for the chance to drive fast cars, play with futuristic gadgets and **** beautiful women. :p

Crikey - You're in Widnes... I'm in Runcorn. How is being a scouser a problem? I mean - who would suspect? I'm 6'6"... I guess that rules me out.

I think we are probably better at fabricating evidence about weapons of mass destruction (not that you guys didn't try too, but probably not as egregiously as we did). Certainly we are better at believing our own fabrications. :)

Well Interiority those of us that are vertically challenged must stick together. The advantage to it is that we get noticed more often. In a crowd we have the advantage of being able to see over them. I happen to be proud of my height. Was just able to make the cut being a flight nurse.
