The Su-27 landing at Bratislava in 1997.
Is it using ice skates? – Nermal
It crashed. Think there are a few more threads about it and its demise if you use the search facility – Nermal
It will be top watched TV programme that day – doubt if there will be anything else on… – Nermal
Does Hamburger have one? Doubt it, so the question is sort of pointless.
Where is this leading to? – Nermal
You are both fooling youselves. Most people didn’t / don’t give a toss either way.
Most people don’t vote either. What does that say for society? It says to me that if you make enough noise you will attract attention and then followers. Labour attracted support from groups against various causes (CND, the unions, the worker) until it got into power and has now shown that it really couldn’t careless; the people who put the great leader into number ten have realised that, in reality, a polititian is a self-serving form of vermin.
Care for societys needy? They’d rather help their wealthy backers, thank you very much.
Workers rights and health and safety issues? Snub the unions and discuss with the bosses how to keep the shareholders happy.
Follow the ideals laid down over many years by generations of workers, keen to have a voice in the running of the country – or discuss privatisation with that devil in a blue twin set, Thatcher. Which do you think?
I vaguely remember the seventies – strikes, power cuts, and rubbish in the streets – but I also remember the eighties and nineties – strikes, greed is good, unemployment – and to be honest I had hoped that Blair would be better: but now I am that much wiser, so I deeply regret the passing of Raving Lord Sutch since I really feel he would been a breath of fresh air and that the Monster Raving Looney Party couldn’t have been any worse than the others. – Nermal
My parents reckon that by the time I come back from football, he would have died.
“Don’t go to football or the pope will die”… So they are trying to lay the guilt at your door? – Nermal
I thought it had to be before midday:rolleyes: – Nermal
Is this the forums April fool? – Nermal
$15,000? Damned fools… – Nermal
Agreed agreed.
Although I did care about hunting – glad it’s been banned. I know most people didnt but I think Blair had to do it to appease the party really.
Most people? I happened to meet a farmer tenant who had a third knocked off his rent if he and his family, much against his own feelings, attended the the pro-hunting protests; with landlords like that you certainly would get a good turn out but it is a form of blackmail against freedom of opinion, especially in these bad times for farmers.
A lot of people were against hunting and might see it as the best thing done by this government, just don’t be fooled because the minority made loud noises about the hunting ban. – Nermal
How old is your boyfriend? Since you are 21 (happy birthday, by the way) how many elections have you voted in? – Nermal
And? – Nermal
And – having just ‘sold’ them, didn’t the RAF have to go cap-in-hand to Heavylift for some much-needed cargo capacity during the Falklands episode ?
Yes – they took stuff down to Ascension Island. I would like to say they carried Wessex and other aircraft, but the old memory is playing up. – Nermal
I think I might have seen an MP trying to gain the interest of the potential electorate, once, but I lost interest in living when it started to speak – Nermal
Might be because everyone is rebelling against boybands, kareoke muppets, competition singers, bland consumer friendly soul, and imitation gangsters. – Nermal
