    Did they take the Canadian engine back home, or is that still here ?

    I can’t really add anything.
    Thanks to all those who make this forum what it is. :very_drunk:

    Well, they have the resources but just because they are there, they’re not “free”. Men need to be paid, vehicles need maintenance and fuel, hangars need upkeep.

    Yes but all this happens whether or not they are being used. If it’s RAF manpower and resources.

    No funds or resources for the RAF to move and store.

    Does the RAF need funds to move anything ? They have the manpower and equipment already to hand. Probably lots
    of hangar space around the country too.

    A good outcome though.

    Nice one.

    Any ideas what the colour scheme is going to be on the F-15, or is that another Duxford secret ? 🙂

    Are you saying that £10 is the minimum you can have in your Sanef account ?
    With the minimum TopUp £10 ?

    Latest figure is 126 dead.
    It is beyond belief.

    If that”s that appalling programme about real life viewers watching television and commenting then that just about sums up all we need to know about Farage!!

    Gogglebox may not be exactly cutting edge television, but it is one of the very few TV programmes that get me laughing.
    It’s a bit of escapism, as we don’t watch any of the unreality/talentless/soap output.
    My wife never misses The Archers though 🙂

    Anyone know what the latest is on the engine swap, has it happened yet ?

    I would in one stroke ban all store provided plastic shopping bags… you would have to bring your own or purchase a reusable one at about 50P each…

    .

    I was under the impression that they were bringing out legislation to this effect, earlier this year.
    So far the only place other than Lidl or Aldi (who already charge) I have found who charge for bags, seems to be B&Q.

    So you, in your professional medical opinion, consider eating disorders to be fictitious?

    Did I say that ?

    There is so much I would like to say on this subject, but I’m sure it would attract numerous posts from people who
    suffer from genuine ailments. As well as taking the tread way off course.

    Do you who endured the programme share the general criticism of the audience and its participation? .

    In what way ? I think there were those who didn’t like being preached to, and weren’t afraid to speak out.
    I don’t very often watch the programme myself now, and only watched this one because of who was on the panel.

    As others have said. How much longer can the BBC pretend that the panel don’t know the questions that are going to
    be put to them ?

    The BBC also seem to have a love affair with Russell Brand, I wonder why ?

    I want to see Farage debating the economy and fiscal policy. Until he does we will learn nothing about his competence in what he aspires to be.

    Fair comment, but I wonder how many other prospective candidates or sitting MPs could hold such a debate ?
    I expect he will be asked these questions as the General Election draws closer.
