What a decent bloke, this wasn't about publicity or money. This was him being a good bloke.
Also funny to see that he got more attention than any politican who's preceded him.
I like Beckham but I also like his wife........good family with 3 lovely boys. I admire him going to Afghanistan as he'd no need to, and thought his comments regarding the army excellent.
Thank you, but I'm not a fab father. I'm just a Dad who would do anything for the kids I've raised. I should be an example of a normal father, and it boils my blood when there are Dads who just don't care.
I guess the most important thing is did the soldiers in Afghanstan gain anything from the visit ? ...if so then great if it was just a distraction they didn't want then it was a pointless exercise,
I have a great deal of respect for DB.
I know that had my son been out in Afghanistan at the moment, cool as he likes to appear, he'd have been 'schoolboy-thrilled' to have seen and met DB.....
