    Shorthaul, I’d like to try Estonian, VLM, Aurigny and anyone with a BAe 146!!

    VLM – thumbs up.
    Air New Zealand – thumbs down.

    They’re all good photos, but I particularly like the sky on the TriStar shot, the lighting on that photo is wonderful.

    Hand – I share your view. From what I read the vast majority of French people share your disgust at the vandalism. This disgraceful, disrespectful act should not lead to attacks on the French people, who, from the many I’ve met, are thoroughly decent.

    White GSDs are generally healthier than their darker counterparts, but although overfeeding can increase problems with the hips, hip dysplasia is an inherited defect rather one that is caused by mismanagement. A vet can x-ray the dog from around 18 months old and score the hips. The worst score is 106 per hip, and in some areas of Scandinavia, hip dysplasia has been virtually eradicated owing to a very rigid breeding scheme whereby dogs with a score of less than perfect (0 per hip) are banned from breeding programmes. This problem also affects some varieties of the Belgian Shepherd breeds, though most notably the Malinois is about the soundest, and a good worker. The Laekenois is rare and the long coated versions (Tervueren and Groenendael) have inherited temperament defects.

    What do i think about you using two names?
    “That woman is weird!”
    No offense.

    Kev,
    My hands go clapclapclapclap. Very well put 🙂

    Knowing that several others have also admitted to more than one name, why is it only me that is weird??? Sexism?? And don’t forget, I wasn’t the one who brought this whole thing up last week (Frank!!)

    Comet/VLMflyer – as Ren points out, the connection with the three ‘engineers’ really is a bit too obvious! By the way, it just so happens that EdmundHalley uses the phrase ‘Number one COMET chaser’ under his name and VLMflyer uses ‘Number one VLM fan’. Follow this train of thought – Edmund Halley who discovered Halleys COMET. Bearing in mind you also have a thread running about multiple user names it looks like you’re as guilty as a puppy sitting next to a pile of pooh! 😉

    Kindest regards

    How many people sign off using the words “regards”?? Several I think, wysiwyg, including yourself. Are you all these people as well?????

    I’m looking forward to seeing a VLM Fokker 50 landing at LCY on 1st September to take me to Antwerp!!:D

    This is not a reply to my own question (!!) more a general observation which I’ll post under Comet rather than logging off and then logging on again as VLM Flyer. I’ve seen staggering differences in the past few days with those who post on my Yahoo Sabena Group, and also on this forum – vastly different usernames, but same message styles and in some cases, identical posts on both forums!!
