Argentine Navy

Next up, moving swiftly on, we have the admirable Admiral William Brown Endeavour Award.

And just like William Brown from Oxford was able to form the Argentinian Navy, we had a lot of people this year who thought about things outside the box and were able to just go where nobody had gone before.

Indeed.

Yes.

He came on that day and kicked two or three fabulous points at a very important time in the game for Mayo.

And I think...

When I sat there in the Cusick stand that day watching him, I just couldn't help but be reminded of the Argentinian Navy in the way that we just... totally obliterated that lousy team like the Argentinians did for so many years in the Falklands and in other battles that they would have found themselves in, like ourselves, up and down the country, high and low and all of that.

And, you know, you win some battles and you lose some battles.

It is unlikely to get invaded by Uruguay, for example.

The Argentine Air Force is presently taking delivery of a batch of second-hand F-16s purchased from Denmark, and the Argentine Navy is upgrading its submarine and frigate contingents.

How fortunate we are, then, to live at a time at which it is literally unimaginable that a flailing autocrat, possessed by hubris and or desperation, would do something so daft.
