My friend works as a war correspondent for one of the UK broadsheets. One night this summer we were sitting in the pub and I was moaning about how I had to work at Glastonbury this year, trotting out lazy clichés about it being like the Somme. “Yeah” he said, “it reminds me of when I was in Afghanistan and was out with a troop of kids. We were ambushed on two sides by the Taliban and I had to lie of the floor while bullets flew past my head and one of the soldiers got hit. Eventually they called in an air-strike and we escaped through the desert." Obviously I felt like a tool. You always hear stories about how American soldiers listen to death
metal when they’re killing people. That doesn’t happen with English
troops apparently, but they’re still all young and obviously like
music. We got in touch with some of them and asked for their top ten
songs of their most recent tours of duty (it did come with some weird
Ministry of Defence sanctioned article, but that was crap).

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is required to get set up? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very web savvy so I'm not 100% positive. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kudos
