You wish.
There was a gay Air Trafficer there at the time. He was also a semi-professional Alan Carr lookalike.
I am also of the firm belief that the ENTIRE Fire Section were homosexualists.
You should have joined the RAF Quinchy. You'd probably have found yourself a man.

I'm never lost.
Wherever I end up is EXACTLY where I meant to go. Even if it's not even on the same continent.
