Nukes against pointed sticks seems a bit one-sided…

If she had any self respect, why would she ever think of, or be duped into, selling access to her children’s father?
It will always remain one of life’s mysteries as to why Andrew Albert Christian Edward Sax-Coburg-Gotha chose that aweful ginger horse over Koo Stark…

Never considered myself a ‘biker’… lifelong motorcyclist, yes. Any motorcycle interests me in some way, but I find I’m going back in time to find what I want, like my current 1974 hand shift Harley-Davidson FLH 1200 Electra Glide, whch I’m also thinking of returning to manual spark advance…

Here’s a previous FLH – that’s the Loch Ness Wellington under those barges!

I worked with a man, 10 years my senior, who continually said that we’d have been better off, if the Germans had won.

I’ve spoken to many British WW2 veteran servicemen who have said the same thing. For instance, the father of a friend of mine was a Commando during the North African and Italian campaigns, and then helped track down war criminals after the war. He was disgusted at the way Britain slowly rotted away industrially, socially and intellectually since the war, and was often heard to mutter that the wrong side won.
What if the Germans had won? I can remember seeing a Nazi map of Britain, split into ethnicity, and it showed just how skewed their theories were. They thought England was an equal, since the Saxons originally came from Germany, and the Gaels in Scotland were considered Aryan too. But my lot, the Picts, were labelled as ‘Untermensch’ – sub-humans, so their geneticists obviously had no idea that the Picts came from northern Germany, Denmark, and Norway originally. The Gaels had migrated north from the Basque region of Spain, so their racial theories were 100% out.
Some groups would have been allowed to live their lives unmolested, so long as they towed the party line, maybe even Germanicised, while other groups would have been rounded up, used for slave labour, then exterminated…

Sorry to have to say Beagles don’t fly very well. While taking up cable slack in a T21 glider at Milltown airfield around 1970, a Beagle noticed the cable’s drogue parachute scraping along the grass, decided to catch it, and sunk its nashers in firmly. Unfortunately, my instructor and I were at the top of the launch (near 1000 feet) when the poor hound decided to let go.
Anyway, here’s my two pooches…
