Kinda depends which desert (and the plural of Tuareg is Targui). My
stomping ground is the Gulf, and in the empty quarter they are
definitely Bedouin. Still cut yer bollies off, though.

But if fort soixante-neuf is really under attack, you'd better hope
that Charles Hawtrey can just get there in time.


I have just sent a runner with a cleft stick to a forward post of
The King's Own Herbaceous Borderers, requesting a detachment
of riflemen with skirmishing AVO CT160's to come to your
immediate assistance.
