It is only two or three days since I wished to refer an enquirer to it, and then could not find it; I feared it was myself at fault. I am unaware of any other site with the breadth and depth of historical information concerning the army units of the UK, Colonies and Dominions. A sad loss; but I hope only temporary as the URL comes up with 'Sorry, this site is temporarily unavailable.' Mind you, if it has been doing this for the past few months things perhaps don't look too hopeful! Yours Aye Andrew Sellon A gentleman does nothing but ride or walk; and yet such a ridiculous stress is laid upon the manliness of exercises customary at public schools, exercises in which the greatest blockheads commonly excel the most – which often renders the habits of idleness inveterate - and often lead to foolish expense and dissipation at a more advanced period of life. Rev. Sydney Smith 1771-1854, Canon of St. Paul's.
