RE: So flight-sims are for kids right? Wrong! Zerstorer anyone!!!

Damn you all. I just went and bought IL2 at last. Will install and play tonight, then leave my pc connected while i begin downloading the approximate 150mb worth of patches. GRRRRR. Better be worth it. I’ll let you know!

RE: War on Iraq……Northern Iraq…..OIL RICH!!!

How about Lebanon? Seems to be a fair bit of freedom there.

RE: OK, so what did Santa bring?

Asterix is Breton. As is my wife. (Does this mean my daughter is Bretish as opposed to une Franglais?)

RE: OK, so what did Santa bring?

I got:

Drunk.
Stuffed.

I was over in France for it, we had a seafood extravaganza for the second starter. That was after foie gras. Then some chicken thing. i had to go to bed before desert though. It was 3 am! 3 or 4 different types of wines, chosen to suit.

Having another xmas here soon, when my wife and daughter return. I had to work, so only managed 4 days away. Thats when i will get most of my presents. I have my first bottle of gin though. And a towel. A couple of Asterix books, in French. Nothing whatsoever related to aviation though. That comes through the door at all times of the year!

RE: A legend has died

I saw him play with the Mescaleros a few years back. I am into original punk music only you see, but had never really got into the Clash. I went to see him through curiosity, and nearly didn’t bother. I thought it would be pretty rubbish in all honesty. How wrong I was. I have NEVER seen anyone put that much effort into a gig. Bye Joe.

RE: Chickens

Egg. One type of bird shagged another type of bird, and hey presto.

Ha, CFS3 runs lovely on my PC. Not bad for a 2 year old box! You can, with a bit of forethought, extend the life before obsolescence. Anyone planning on a new PC, my advice is to go for twin-processors on a twin-capable motherboard. Imagine – TWO 2.4GB processors!!! Alas, my two year old rig has only two 866 MHZ processors with approximately 800mb of RAM. It was built for photography, not gaming – but outperforms a lot of peoples from what I can gather.

I Love the graphics in CFS3, and get high framerates. Beefs? The codes on the fuselage are restricted to only two letters (not much cop for RAF or USAAF markings) and its not as ‘fun’ as CFS2 – but hey, it looks GOOD!

RE: Food songs

Paperback Raita surely?

Two pints of lager and a packet of crisps please – splodganessabounds. Still gigging they are. What a classic!
