No Beer this weekend

Bugger. I’m skint too now.

10D, BG-ED3 Grip, extra battery. Next up is 4x 256mb Sandisk CF cards. Thank God I already have the lenses.

(Incidentally, I called Sigma today to check compatibility with my 18-35 and 170-500 – if they aren’t compatible, they will rechip them. This is free if you can show the original sales receipt. There is merely a £5 return postage charge. Now THAT is customer service.)

At least the tourists won’t get ripped off with fake antiquities like they do around Palymra, Baalbek and Jerash then.

“This is a totally different concept of warfare”

Tell that to us Brits. We’ve only been dealing with terrorism for my whole life and longer. (I’m sorry, where did PIRA get most of its money from?)

And Kev is crap on his flight-sim by the way, and before spreading accusations on sexuality, farm-boy, I suggest you refrain from marrying your sister/horse. And how the hell would you guys recognise a ‘soccer’ field anyway? From the TV? (My equally crap attempt at humour).

Dispatches. Take a look at Apocalypse Now after reading it – Herr was involved with it, and many incidents from the book crop up…The Grunt with the M79 springs to mind. Dennis Hoppers character was based on Page (Tim Page is alive and well, living near Orpington, releases a book now and again. Lost half his brain.) Whether or not Dispatches is the best, well, there are many others that contend. Chickenhawk is one of them. Another one of interest is Page after Page – Tim Page’s own version of events (with before and after too).

Huh? What? Pass another beer will you Ian, there’s a good chap.

Can’t help mate. I have a few bits from Typhoon and Tempest II (Hendon). TomW is working on Kermits V though, he may be able to help.

Ryan Air could buy them. That’d be great.

London – Paris £2 return – a pound a minute! Whoopee!

Or they could turn them into restaurants – the Concorde restaurant chain. Man, that would really pay well. Have air-hostess uniform clad waitresses. (The B&B option would suck though – but the 6 foot high club evenings may pay well too!)

“No Snapper, we’re not accused for being antisemitic because we’re against this war. We’re only antisemitic if we think that part of the neoconservative clan behind Bush (you know, the Prez’ external brain) are supportive of Israel.”

I thought Skythe was accusing the articles writer of anti-semitism Arthur? Please – don’tt force me to READ the bloody thing! Life is way too short.
