Laughter has always been a release during war, the British are renown for it if not for their cooking.

Particularly like the talk made by one of the British commanders just before the war started unlike the American who true to form was very brash and loud the Brit told his troops,

“I’m not sure what we are going to meet once we get going, it may be tough on the other hand it could be tea and medals in Baghdad by Friday”. A true Gen. Sir Anthony Hogmany Melchett Line from Black Adder.

Why Protest in Paris

Strange that there’s been a massive protest in Paris, unfortunately now that the French have been marginalised by Bush and Blair, it is of very little consequence to their plans of what goes on in the French capital or what the French think.

On a slightly different note I read in last nights Jersey Evening Post (19 March), that there is a plan to build a 14 mile (23Km in French Money) causeway between Jersey and the Normandy coast.

I reckon that with the divisions that now exist in Europe over the Iraq Crisis, the Euro and the appointment of new members to the EU this is actually a French ploy to align it’s self to Jersey by physical connection and to declare it’s self an Off Shore Tax Haven:)

AR213

I know I’ve posted this before Tom, if you’re interested I have the Flying Log for W/O R G E Wilson who flew AR213 on several occasions while she was with 53 OTU at Kirton in Lindsey, though I don’t have a photo of the old girl I can send a shot of Wilson and copies of the flying log.
