Yes, a lot of bull in his story as per the poster above.
It seems you were being conned or about to be conned. Have you checked your belongings?
Your kindness is saintly, but the truth is that genuinly desperate people don’t approach strangers in the street and invent a sympathy tale. You getting the Vicar involved (Or any 3rd party) probably spooked him.

It’s an atonishing truth. LOOK, my books sold out!
We get the formula thanks. Next.

Oh, re Rudder. The longer the craft, the smaller the rudder needs to be, it’s all about the distance from the Turning moment of the craft and the ratio between girth and length.
Similar affect is seen on the A380, proportionately short-fat therefore outrageously large fin and rudder.

We all came from outer space, on a Comet (Lumpy icey kind, not one of Geoffrey De Havilland’s)
We are all aliens, we started off as a Tardigrade. Some still look the same.

I think it’s high time the real story was portrayed in a new version, without all the made up story, and with realistic characters. It makes a mockery of history as far as I’m concerned, and could be done better. I’m amazed with all the interest in the Spitfire even these days in Britain that it has not yet been done.

There is indeed a programme on our TV in a week or 2, called the Real Battle of Britain. An add for it was on TV last night, after the showing of “First Light”. A well thought out documentary film based on the book of the same name by BoB’s youngest pilot Geoffrey Wellum. Plenty of good (Modern) Spit. footage shown.

After every internet session, I clean my world with CCleaner.
All cookies, temp. files and recycle bin are cleaned (Not just emptied).
It’s a free download. I use filehippo as the source downloading site.
Used ccleaner (When it was known as CrapCleaner) for 6 years now, no problems.
I learnt about ccleaner from the excellent internet publication called “Tweaking companion” by Koroush Ghazi. A darn fine book IMO.

For deeper cleaning and virus removal, use Anti Malware or/and Super anti spyware. Again, these are freeware.

Far too simple. :p

But true.
When London was the most important City of da velt, the G. M. was the divider of East West. Notwithstanding Kent and the other bits of civilised Europe.

Those ‘in the know’ seem to think IE has a few security issues,I am just playing safe LOL

But I have the MS firewall and a very expensive Protector/Anti-virus. I see no need to change from IE. After every net session I clean up with CCleaner. The only virus I’ve had was my own fault when downloading a file.

If I needed to be faster because I may lose £10,000 on the market in the nano-second of saving, then I’d check on the speeds of such things…but I don’t so I won’t.

Please explain what is wrong with IE.
Every page I search for is found and opened in less than a second.
What else do I need a browser for, if not that?
