Shame on you not knowing what soldiers are especially as I posted a picture of them.

They are a slice of bread buttered and cut into strips. It is a way that Brits traditionally have got young children to eat a boiled egg with dipping the soldiers in the dare I say it runny egg (are we allowed that anymore :o)

I can remember even seeing kits in the shop with egg cups the body and legs of the soldier and the egg cosy a soldiers hat, something like a bearskin or hats you see in children's story books for soldiers, then you were supposed to draw the head yourself.

Can someone upload today’s FNC Obama Watch to Youtube, so I can link it in another forum.

This is the clip about it from last week:

snugs, I have to admit I didn’t know what the heck was in that picture but thanks for the interesting explanation.

Sounds like the first step on the road to making french toast. All you need now is to sprinkle with cinnamon, fry in butter and add powdered sugar.

Then I will salute.

P.S. I gave up sweets for Lent. I hope no one will believe me when I say that at 12:01 this morning I was eating chocolate pudding.
