Well, as you might guess from my username and signature that rugby is my game, and happy to say that I still take a run out when ever I can at the age of 43.
Not going to bother going down the ‘played by the posh’ route, but suffice to say, over 25 years of being involved in senior rugby I’ve played the game with people from all walks of life. We are a team, we play for each other, we don’t give a fig where we come from, who Daddy was or how much we earn.
Anyway, getting back on topic, I am currently sitting in a remote part of the Ukraine looking after a drilling rig. No TV out here, but am managing to get the games on an internet streamimng site. Been a couple of decent games so far, and interesting to see the closing in the gap between the lower of the established nations, and the top end of what was previosly seen as also rans.
Looking forward also to Scotland trying to find a way of crossing the whitewash a bit more often as well……we fair dragged it out against Romania and Georgia !!!
Here’s hoping for an entertaining tournament all round !!
What appeared to be a Tupolev Bear transiting at high altitude (leaving contrails) on a heading of approx 260 degrees between Norway and Shetland this morning.
Cannot think of any other swept wing four engined turbo-prop aircraft going around other than this. The sound was certainly something to behold, even at that altitude !
Hurricane
Farnborough ??

Don’t blame you.
Not worried about the rest of the content of the post, but would like to see the pic again.
Mk XIX PS915, (original member of the RAF Memorial flight as was, and now back with the BBMF) did a stint at Leuchars in the 70’s as well, I think.
A shape that is missed down here at RAF St Mawgan………..
And the North east of Scotland ! 🙁
Brilliant !!
The words “hard work and dedication” come to mind !
4 airworthy Meteors in the UK now then.
I think it’s more banter rather than personal attack here, and I certainly don’t see any “Royal Bashing” or criticism going on. Just maybe a wee questionmark over her judgement in wearing the thing in the first place !!
Come on……admit it….it’s hideous isn’t it !! 😀

i prefer the phrase ” eat an apple through a tennis raquet !” hope she keeps away from horses she may get patted and given a polo mint !!
So what was that you were saying about personal attacks !!! :D:D

No longer there, unfortunately – the Port wanted the buildings back. Some of the vehicles rotate to York.
Thanks for the update, would hate to think I’d sent some one on a wild goose chase !!
It baffles me how any reasonably intelligent woman could stick that thing on her head and fail to notice that she looks a complete plonker.
I reckon she did it for a bet.
A reasonably intelligent woman wouldn’t have !!! :diablo:
