I heard it was fine so long as you don’t leave it on too long 🙂

Well, what technologies are going to make this happen, but which aren’t already in use? Essentially there need to be some new materials in order to get any massive leaps forward.

I wouldn’t suggest anyone ride a motorbike without at least a motorbike jacket, gloves and a helmet. Motorbike trousers and boots are a good idea too, but the first 3 save you the worst of it 😎

It’s better to think of what you can do, than what you should have done, else you’ll be thinking in the future “well I wish I had done X instead of thinking about what I did wrong before then” 🙂

And yes, I take my own advice 😎

He got a real roasting for not stopping on bike chat forums 😀

It involves a Eurofighter, but it’s not really about the Eurofighter at this stage, so it probably is best in its own thread IMO 🙂

Please enter a dialogue.

So when is Argentina entering a dialogue over Tierra del Fuego? 😎

for the sake of the argument, one may ask the brits the same question 😀

argentina may say it’s on their doorstep, but the UK… 😉

You can wipe that smile off your face mate! If Britain loses the Falklands to Argentina, you can kiss goodbye to French Guiana as that’s next, and the French government know this all too well.

Surely there’s some middle ground between ‘give them away’ and ‘get the Argies to concede their stand’. Northern Ireland has been a part of United Kingdom, for what … 700 years, but an acceptable honorable solution to the Troubles was achieved nonetheless.

The unfortunate implication of that is that it’ll be the Argentinians’/South Americans’, if and only if they can fight for it and win it square and fair.

‘Get over it’ is not a pragmatic stand to take an international dispute. And pragmatism is what keeps the govts of former colonies from keeping grudges even while some of their citizens (like Quadbike for example) feel there is a score to be settled. Pragmatism keeps wars from happening and diplomats in business.

Why should Britain enter a dialogue? It has nothing to gain and everything to lose. Argentina wants dialogue as it has something to gain and nothing to lose. You must really think we are all rather stupid… And of course when you say “dialogue” that is actually code for “give in to Argentina’s demands for shared sovereignty leading rapidly to a handover of the islands to Argentina” 😀

In any case, let’s not drift from reality to fantasy. The reality is the islands are British, and unless Argentina is going to invade them, that is not going to change, no matter how much you beg us for dialogue on an internet forum 🙂

Thats pretty good!
