Hi All,
Second what Rii has said, we had the perfect platform binned after a ton of cash was put into development that has left us with a non existent maritime patrol, instead we are left relying on others to do a job that had the a proven platform already in the throws of being upgraded cancelled yet again by blinkered civil servants who look at the pennies and not the requirement and keeping our own arms industry workers employed shades of TSR2 all over again.

Hi All,
You start with a little bit here and then annex all Wales like that rusky fellow Mr Putin did in Crimea.

Hi All,
Has to be ‘B’ as those who know the rules can never match those with experience, Just because someone knows the rules doesn’t mean there any good at the task in hand as been proved on so many occasions no matter where the option is applied.

Hi All,
It’s often stated that if anybody would be seeing UFO’S/Alien Craft it would be astronomers through there telescopes just a couple of problems here, astronomers are only looking at a small piece of the sky not all around them at the same time, If you see something flying and you don’t know what it is then there you have it a UFO, If you are talking flying saucers or alien craft that’s much harder to prove. I have seen a couple of anomalies flying are they Alien craft, Top Secret Black Project aircraft ? I don’t know but I have never seen a green flame cruising across the sky at a sedate pace since or the often reported triangle of white light again both only sighted once but very vivid in my memory, until you have an experience like this you will always be a sceptic about the unknown yet if you view with an open mind anything is possible.
As for Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster just because they have no concrete proof it doesn’t mean it cannot exist neither did the coelacanth until 1938 and more recently been the subject of a documentary where they have a number of coelacanth colonies in various locations, just the same as other species have been found alive thought to be extinct. As far as cell phone cameras go even if they have been caught on these there is an automatic cry FAKE! the same goes for every other crypto-zoological being that has been reported I mean not all sighting are 100% wrong even if just 1% is real shouldn’t we all wish who ever takes on the mantel of investigator well or are we just meant to sit back and say naaaaa!!! not real as the true sceptic’s want us all to do.

Hi All,
Well I can’t see what all the fuss is about it’s been clear up here in Warwickshire and Snafu, isn’t the difference between the sand and ash the fact that the ash clogs up and then hardens like cement while at the same time being highly abrasive, where as the sand although highly abrasive will normally just pass through the engine ?
