    I have it on dodgy authority that it is all the BBC’s fault, in cahoots with the illuminati and the lizards.

    So where does the Pope fit into this ? :confused:

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but did anyone see this dramatised reconstruction of the enquiry into the Challenger disaster on BBC2 last night, with William Hurt as Feynman? .

    Very good programme !

    Alan. Didn’t one or two of the Medecins Sans Frontieres Drs/medics get murdered at one location they were working in?. Seems to ring a bell.
    Jiim.

    You may be right, I’m not sure.

    The reasons they gave for pulling out of other locations, wasn’t so much for
    their own security, but because the refugee camps were being taken over by
    military factions.

    Talking of charities

    Rock philanthropist Bono, the frontman of U2, has come under attack after it was revealed that his anti-poverty foundation ‘ONE’ gives only one percent of it’s funds to charity.

    The non-profit organisation set up by the Irish rock icon received almost 15 million in donations in 2008 but handed out only 190,000 to good causes, reported New York Post.

    More than 50 percent of the funds, went towards paying salaries and ONE is now facing allegations of mismanagement and fraud.

    There used to be an old military surplus shop in Hingham Norfolk. An Aladdins
    cave of all sorts of second hand military clothing. He also had the odd
    parachute there as well.

    I can’t imagine anyone risking their lives with a parachute of indeterminate history.

    There was an interesting programme on TV a little while ago, talking about
    how very often, throwing aid into war torn countries can be counter productive.
    So much so that organisations such as Médecins Sans Frontières, have pulled
    out of a number of locations in the last few years.

    One of the traders at our local market was wearing one the other week, it was
    all I could do to stop myself laughing.
    He looked like Andy Pandy (for those old enough to know who that was)

    Whenever we used to go to see my wife’s cousins at Catterick, we’d go into Richmond.
    The last time we went there (about four years ago), that was going down hill.
    A great shame, as it’s such a lovely town.

    It seems to be the same story all over the country 🙁

    I think you’d be lucky to find a bookie who would take any money.

    Their biggest mistake was inviting the BNP’s Nick Griffin onto the panel.
    In the attempt to rubbish him, it showed the programme up for what it is.
