You should be sent back to Colchester for that remark!
For all of our baiting of each other, this is the one that cuts me to the quick. Colchester (Colly) was for bad soldiers but my military record was exemplary. The only way that you could have turned that into a bigger insult slur on my character was if you had also accused me of being 'The Duck' in disguise or that I possessed all of the beauty of Peter Beardsley and the charm of Wayne Rooney.
My revenge and retribution for this slur will be both quick and violent.
It could be worse....some at Colchester went home each day...they were the ones making toilets be cleaned with toothbrushes. They claimed exemplary records too.

Sorry but we are not allowed to discuss the red caps on this forum.

I refuse on grounds of social distancing. May I remind you that duels are fought at 20 paces?

Declining my challenge to a duel is probably the wiser choice. In the British army we are taught to 'force march' from day 1, which is known as 'yomping' in the Marines and Para's. This means that by the time that I was on my twentieth pace and ready for turning around, you would probably be on around 7 paces.
My other trick would be to hold the duel on a balcony with a length of about 6 paces, I could then stand still while you walked off the end of the balcony. How else do you think that I single-handedly ended the Iranian Embassy siege in 1980?

Yes I remember when they tried to get you on the telly and make you Sir Tiger....but you refused and said to let the SAS take the glory for throwing in a few stun grenades. Mind you ya did have some proper bucked teeth back then....Sargeant Goofy we all called you behind your back.
