RE: Please explain!!!…..Is it me?

New Labour = Old Tory , STOP handouts to asylum seekers , STOP housing them , once they realise we’re not the charity box of Europe they will stop coming. Pay more respect to the old age pensioners who live in poverty and in rundown “private” nursing homes , give them a decent pension and free housing , these people have seen Britain through war and peace , they have paid their dues , give them their reward .

GeeDee , I’m sitting in my office looking out at a very bleak and wet Scotland , your post means that I’m going straight to the Direct Holidays website to seek some sunshine and beer.

Hi Gary , I have a video of Tex Johnson rolling the 707 prototype(Pioneers of Flight ) and an interview with the man himself , he admits it was’nt quite a barrel roll but a chandelle ,nose up , and start to roll then nose down , same as a barrel roll but you lose a couple of thousand feet and take some of the G’s off to avoid over stressing the airframe .
Anyway you must be as bored as me over on this Forum , I’m going over to the Airforces Forum to try and spark another debate with the Chinese !!!
