JLS fans go wild as boyband announces new tour dates for summer 2024: 'This just gave me goosebumps! However, even dogs on extended leads don’t stray on to roads, where cyclists should be (Letters, March 9).

In May 1982, eight young officers of the Welsh Guards—whose colonel-in-chief is the King—found themselves despatched at short notice to fight 8000 miles away in the Falklands. Women who wore images of Hamas paragliders taking part in the attack on Israel to be charged - but they. SIR – The Government doesn’t need to pass a law requiring open-top lorries to tie waste down ( Letters, March 7) as there already is one.They insist that Moore was 'nowhere near Bluff Cove', and is 'totally innocent of the book's attempts to malign him'.

Now, amid the fire on the Sir Galahad, he suffered 46 per cent burns, easily enough to have killed him. Biography: Crispin Black served as platoon commander of the Welsh Guards in the Falklands and survived the bombing of the HMS Sir Galahad. In a remarkable passage, he describes a trip to the National Archives in Kew, where he discovers a newly declassified document, marked 'Secret', in which Admiral Fieldhouse places the blame for the debacle on Brigadier Tony Wilson, the commander of 5 Infantry Brigade.
