You've probably read or seen on TV that David Cameron has been in Afghanistan visiting British troops.
Whilst there, the Prime Minister had the good fortune to bump into my friend and fellow Coleraine man Michael Currie. A former soldier himself, Michael is currently in Helmand working as a close protection officer.
If ever a photo negated the need for further words, then surely this is it.
Merry Christmas to all our troops - and close protection officers.
