I understand your frustration, as I no longer listen to the news, and rely on Tenths to keep me informed. This works vey well, and I recommend this tactic to you. Who needs the Beeb when we have Delta. PS; Parc Ferme is French. decent people should not get involved. |

Something else I’ve learned- The expression “The full nine yards” comes from the length of one machine gun amunition belt/chain in a P51 Mustang wing.... (Other aircraft may have had the same )
If the pilot fired the whole amount, (42 seconds worth) he was said to have given ‘the full nine yards’..... |

I must admit admit a too spend a lot of time recreatinh historic meets like PA and Masters round Spa etc on Forza 7(Semi Simulator Arcade game)driving 905s XJR9s with no assists .I imagine i'm there.My dad said to me at Le Mans Classic that he didnt know I was that obsessed to m'sport.We were on the main grandstand opposite the pits at 3am watching the second races for grids 2-3.We went much to my anger just after grid 4 started.I have a obsessio with literally watching every minute because this type of racing wont be around forever so I make the most of it.Our campsite was quite a laugh.We had a little UK section of about 8 tents.The people next to us got there gazebo knicked.Oh and we found a paedo (i would use a stronger word)in the campsite showers aswell.Safe to sya he got sorted out.Any odd occurences in campsites you've seen ?

The car is on its way Gerard, chugging past Kuala Lumpur as we speak. As for the prop shaft......it's better not to think about it too much My London to Brighton involvement has only been with the historic commercial vehicle run (ie trucks & buses) but I always try to get along to the veteran car run, usually at the start in Hyde Park. Hard to beat for atmosphere. |

Many people are not aware that the term "balls out" has nothing to do with anatomy.

Cripes and lummee, time for a Brexit update methinks.
So the head mistress went to see Mrs Merton and then Mr Junkker, Mrs Merton locked the car door but somehow the head mistress got it open. Not even the bus fare home I'm afraid although I expect she did get a nice tea. At least as nice as Johnny Foreigner can make, I've never yet had a nice cup of tea outside these shores. It must be the water you know. Anyway, no sooner had "Miss" turned her back than Johnson Ma and Rees-Mogg were bullying 48 boys to get Miss replaced. Mind you the way things are going I would think Miss is one of them, it can't be pleasant beng told to "clear off" in so many languages. Including Toryish. Think you need to take her a cuppa and a kwossant, Delta. Meanwhile we're another day closer to Brexit Day, and nothing done. Still, if the boys at Westminster Towers weren't contemplating their navels so much they'd be meddling in our affairs so we should be thankful for small mercies.

I sincerely hope not! She lacks any semblance of capability in terms of people and negotiation skills. Worst PM the country has had since Ted Heath.

I notice Macron has fallen foul of the EU budget regulations with his latest offers to appease the rioters. He's now got France into a worse position than Italy.

There is a relation between historic and speed here. He went from Louis XIV and Napoleon to Louis XVI rather quickly I should admit! The guy is fast, people are furious…

However does any one of the possible replacements look like a better option? And would they be able to control the rest of the unelectables now they have tasted blood? One begins to understand why the politicians have been running the armed forces down for a few decades ... |

If you want to blame anyone, blame Cameron for the mess he left! I don’t believe for one minute that Mrs May ever wanted the job. And as for there being a more suitable candidate..........
