I would never describe the militant scum as “animals” because that is an insult to the animal kindgom, who, after all, are far more noble than such scum. My dog is an animal, and I would like to think that the health of my dog, and the welfare of my dog, was more important than the health and welfare of such scum. Even bacteria, viruses and mould spores have more rights and deserve more respect than those militant scum.

AirPower, I agree with your earlier comment, what a pity it was censored, but that always happens when people speak the unpalatable truth in this country. The only “people” in Britain who, apprarently, have the right to “freedom of speech” are those who preach “jihad” against the West and praise the 9/11 hijackers as “heroes” and “martyrs”. You say anything against thses individuals are you are labelled a “racist” “fascist” “nazi” and other offensive things. You can moderate this all you like, but you canot deny that what I am saying here is the TRUTH!

I have a Sidewinder. Usually okay as well.

I have Affligem, Grimbergen, Leffe (3 types), Chimay (2 types) and some other stuff. That’ll stay at home. i’ll get a fourpack of Tesco Value Bitter. That’s great stuff.

It is both their blessing and their curse that they do not know. But I know, I have always known.

(Not Blade runner)

Bloody hell is that the best you can do?! There are actually five types of Leffe (Blonde, Brune, Radieuse, Tripel and Vieille Cuvee!) and three types of Chimay (not counting those in the big bottles which are just rebottlings of the others) – Red (7%), White top (8%) and Blue (9%). There are at least two Grimbergens, more than one Affligem.

You should see the beauties we have in our cupboard after a day trip to Brussels – all the Rocheforts (6, 8 and 10), Ciney (Blond last time), Ename (Tripel last time), Brugs, Piraat, Hapkin, Jan van Gent, De Koninck to name a few.

And on Saturday I am drinking the undisputed God of Beers, the one and only Sloeber brewed in a town called Mater, near Oudenaarde, by the Roman brewery. That beats the crap out of the cheap water you get in the supermarkets here!

Air New Zealand – friendly and efficient cabin staff in economy? Hahaha, don’t make me laugh. I have had loads of flights with them, and only had one crew which I could desrcibe as friendly. So bad is not a one off with them, but good is! I’m still waiting for them to answer a call button which I pressed back in April 1998 – yes, that’s how friendly and efficient they are! They ignored all call buttons on that flight.

The best are VLM and SNBA, on my flight from BHX-BRU back in March I encountered the best airline steward I have ever come across on any airline, and that was with SNBA.

But of course the best airline ever for in flight service does not exist any more.
