There always has to be someone to blame in these situations.

It’s easy to forget that at one time, large areas of Somerset were permanently under water.

Gravity, not a bad film. Better than I expected.

I can’t imagine anyone arguing that WW2 bombing reports aren’t relevant to historic aviation.

If anyone wants to see the originals the ERO has an online search called SEAX here: http://seax.essexcc.gov.uk/

However, there’s at least an eight-year backlog in items to be added to the catalogue, so there’s no promise they’ve actually made it on there.

……………….. Putin now sees the west as a toothless threat, we will stand by and watch as he does what he wants simply in my opinion because we need their gas, like was feared a few years ago the Russians will hold the gas pipelines as ransom if we go against their actions…………

Which sums it up quite nicely. Putin will do whatever he wants to.

It always amazed me how “Teflon Tone”, got away with so much. He was one of the untouchables.

It’s a fair bet that Vettel will win yet another championship this season. With Raikkonen is the next favourite.
