Not really sure I want to know…………..what was………..no – forget it!!!:eek:
Petrol, and some weird nut that was sprinkled on a Salad in Mexico. It tasted like Argentinian Pipe tobacco with a twist of Yak poo in it.

The cop should have been fired after the event.
He wasn’t. That means he has full rights as an employee.
Therefore, what followed can only be described as constructive dismissal.
He is right to sue the City in employment terms. The city however should have fired him in the first place.

“You’ll buckle me trunions!” Class line of last decade!
This afternoon on Film 4…..”Thunderbirds are go!” Fantastic movie, I still remember being enthralled as a nipper, and it looked good now. SFX were world class for the day. Lady Penelope is still fit (Liked her at aged 6!!). Lifelike models of Cliff and the Shadows performing a specially written song(Except the puppets moved more and with more rhythm than Cliff), Band of the Royal Marines playing the theme tune at the end. And of course the ultimate machine which we are still trying to design, Thunderbird 2….the perfect solution to the A400 mess. Boss fella even had a DS lite with his telemessaging on it!

Would it?
The evidence of the interminably boring ‘star’ in some naff old car chat (before they show you the equally boring film of the ‘star’ trying to drive a circuit) suggests it wouldn’t actually be riveting television.
But yes, probably better than Norton. Precious small praise though that is.
Moggy
The evidence of his own chat show in the late 90’s is good enough. He was rude to those that needed to be rude to, built bombs and stuff. A super show.

District 9.
What a clever fillum. Basically take the apartheid story and apply it to aliens.
SFX are excellent, I think they were done by same people/company as Avatar.

The fault with your logic is that whilst we all can (and in my case ‘do’ ) avoid watching or listening to him, we can’t (couldn’t) avoid paying for him.
With commercial TV in its parlous financial state and no competition from the Beeb for his services, his next pay packet will inevitably be significantly reduced. (But still dwarfing we normal mortals’ I’d guess)

EDIT: OMG They wouldn’t give the chat show to Clarkson? Would they? 😮
At least it would be entertaining. I’d rather have the future SIR JC than that Irish idiot Norton.

On the main topic, whilst I support the A400 for the sake of the EU/Brit jobs, I also support the technology developments in both the Lumps and the CFRP. As stated elsewhere, I believe several thousand hours should be put on the A400 aeroplane (In hot, cold, rain, thunder, snow etc.) before pax are permitted to fly in the A350 or 787 – with CFRP wing box and fuse.
10% of my job relies on A400, my company is owed $2.45M from the development, due to complete and utter lies (From EADS and AUK) about the load paths, surge requirements, battle damage requirements and and and and. We are certainly not the only ones. Most of the supply chain is in the same ship and we want our money.
What employment is brought to the UK in the production of the A400M?
We’re building the lift fan for heavens sake.
Don’t know if that is sarcastic or just unread.
The VTOL knowledge was exported to the USA, from the US taking over of the Harrier 2 (They actually made a good job of it) and of course the JSF. The best brains (Involved in VTOL) in BAe were posted to the US as part of the venture. Some have left BAe to join Lockheed, more money better conditions etc. Basically, VTOL expertise has gone from the UK defence industry. The US will get any technology they want, the dollar will always win. Not even the dollar, they stole the Miles design for the supersonic jet and it emerged some time later as the X-1. No money changed hands for that!
You are the epitome of anti-PC, that’s for sure. 😉
