Dave T, thanks for the Cranberry Fix LoL Once Ive got 773 looking as good as Malcs then I’ll let u all know, and if I dont do a better job than Malc then I’ll just go an hide & cry and pretend I didnt do it LoL an to qoute a well known scoundrel “Its not my fault” LoL Bex

Great pics Rob one question, any pics of Malcs beautiful Cranberry by any chance? Just for us Canberraholics as Phantom Phixer called me earlier LoL. but hey at least i know me left from me right tee hee. Bex

just one thing Janie & Flyingkiwi, hiroshima & nagasaki were hit with ATOMIC weapons not nuclear weapons as nuclear refers to hydrogen “bombs” and present day nuclear arsenals, however thank you Janie for asking the question in the first place as I was unaware of the original target particulars.

cool pics the more the merrier!!!! Bex

Wake up and smell the coffee, it’s too bloody late, there’s no turning back, the sacrifices over the past hundred years of servicemen fighting for this country mean nothing to the present lot in power. If they had their way there would be no bloody Remembrance Day. !!! Saint Blair would not stop them not if there was any milage in it for him. .

And yes you could call me a bigot, when you have had over £3000 worth of farming equipment and stock pinched by Albanians in 4 months it tends to concentrate the mind wonderfully especially when they get free legal aid and I have to pay for a solicitor each time.

Rant over. :diablo:

Shorts, it seems the likes of u & me have made 2 major mistakes in our lives.
1. Being born in this country
2. Worked hard paid tax & stamp.

Now, I lost my job of 15yrs last January thru no fault of my own (apart from being a little different from normal humans) and Im having to fight weekly so my family can survive, yet i see our eastern european “cousins” wander around my town with top notch clothes, jewlry, mobiles & cars and hurling abuse at me & partner all this coz theyve been handed it on a plate from the social. My father an ex soldier had a stroke 2 yrs ago and the armed forces didnt want to know, hence my earlier post in this thread which i orignally wrote on Rememberance day. Oh the bit about my old friend, his funeral the Legion turned up with a flag, and my dad & I were the only ones in uniform to honour his passing.

Pete Truman….. Thanks, I knew I was 100% about the dinky toy carriers, but Hermes I wasnt so sure about. I do beleieve at the time of the Falklands they did throw that idea of refitting the Hermes to a proper carrier but time & money stuffed that one. Also some muppet was reported running around the country looking for old AEW3 Gannets for the job, until someone pointed out that his plan was good in theory but just one slight technical hitch, we didnt have a proper aircraft carrier for them to take off & Land on.

I think u just about banged the nail on the head Cypherus, i think its down to society and the fact that too many happy clapper do gooders have decided the dregs of society are allowed to have the same rights as normal human beings. Bring back National Service, give the MOD its old Crown exemptions back and keep the press out, and if the odd toe rag gets a beasting then…………..oh well never mind ah diddums. Bex
