Well I think by now it's obvious that haz is getting involved in that spartan thing. So it makes it even more hilarious that Brenda nicking a huge dollop of his credentials has taken away a lot of the prestige he was hoping would elevate him as someone of importance in such ventures.
Body wise he's OK, but nothing special, and at mid thirties he should be fit and active anyway since he has no responsibilities stopping him from exercising. All in all he's not such a great catch without all his military titles and sports related patronages. No wonder he was harassing gangan to retain them. I thought it was solely an egoist thing but it was to set him up for their next phase selling themselves. Even funnier that Brenda's info-gatherers likely knew of his 30+ visits to spartan and figured out he was about to trade on his military titles and royal patronages re sport. So his pleading and hissy fits via zoom etc were falling on deaf ears, it was decided and that was that
Also, I came across a snippet elsewhere the other day and found it interesting.
So he tried the same trick with Dannatt.
"Yah, no probs old boy, I'll take a juicy promotion and the perks involved, but do bear in mind that I need lots of down time for playing polo and holidays and stuff, so keep any military nonsense to a bare minimum, there's a good chap".
Same shtick he tried with Brenda, half-in-half-out and cherry picking the more interesting gigs.
Again, it wouldn't surprise me if Dannatt informed the Firm that he'd tried that half-in trick with him and he wasn't having it.
No wonder he was pissed at haz in that newspaper article. And no wonder haz avoided confronting him re what the DM said. Cunt knew that Dannatt could spill the beans on just what a non-vital element he was in the military family.
