I was taught to 'know your enemy'.
One of the basic tenets of military intelligence.

Five points for 'expunge'. What an underused and enjoyable word.

Ironically, miltiary intelligence is oft quoth as an example of an oxymoron

Not in my house it isn't.
What a massive insult to people such as the geniuses at Bletchley Park and the thousands of other unassuming, barely-rewarded people whose efforts have saved the lives of countless thousands*.

My brother says it's rather depressing.
It's badly looked-after. A damn shame. But if you're up for it, next time you're down we could go up to my brother's and he'll be up for driving over there I'm sure. You can see his frankly terrifying 'collections' too.
