A great story , with a little Christmas touch ..Its a sad fact that some British seniors , Heros or not , are finding life a bit of a struggle .

Vampire

Also announced by the Vampire Preservation Group , that WZ507 , is to be released as a 1:72 kit , by Airfix .

This T11 will be available in the new year .

The VPG have given great help to Airfix in tooling up the new moulds for this model

I know Bristol has 2 football teams , but , I’m not sure it’s big enough to warrant 2 airports ….

I think some American people have just got the President ” Pissed Off ”

I belive that certain individuals are about to get their toys taken off them .

Hopefully before they have a hissy fit & start quoting ” The consitution ” & throw their guns out of the Pram !!

50% of the worlds guns are owned bt US Citizens …WTF is that all about ???

There are 300million privatly owned firearms in the US…What the F. is that all about ??

94,388 people have already been shot in the USA this year !!!!

Time for Change !!!!

Two quotes ( By Americans )

“Americans are the only race which passed directly from barbarism to decadence without knowing civilisation.”

Or : ” How much longer are we going to think it necessary to be ” American ” before being cultivated , being enlightened , being humane , & having the same intellectual discipline as other civilised countries ?”

Yes I was allowed to watch the film this afternoon ….

Does anyone remember this scene from Catch 22 ?? Dont you just love the B25??
