Well said Kev, P11s doing a lot of flag waving and I can hear him beating his chest from here.

Anti-war protesters are not pathetic people, is it a crime to want peace?

I dont want this war but, as I said elsewhere on this board, its sometimes a nescessary evil, and if this is what it takes to get rid of Saddam then so be it , but for God sake let it be quick with as little calateral damage as possible .

God bless Britain and everyone else involved in this war, its easy for us armchair critics to voice our opinions, so lets pray for the people who are going to end up as cannon fodder, and for those who’ll be left to pick up the pieces when its all over
.

I for one dont agree with war in any way shape or form but sometimes its a nescessary evil as it is now.

Saddam needs to be depossed and quick, so Im behind our troops to kick his arse good and hard.

Dave

well said Frank, I was beginning to think the same.

An Air2000 A320 took off not long before you got there in old colours, and about half an hour before that a BY B757 in new colours took off.

MYT seem to have three differenr colour schemes at mo, I think it makes an airline look very amateurish,

No matter how good a public transport system is the automobile will always be God 🙁

I experienced the London Underground and the Paris Metro, both can be quick and reliable and both can be overcrowded and unreliable , yea I know it sounds contradictary but lets face it both cities a seriously overcrowded and its not always the operators fault when the systems break down, as they do from tome to time.

I cant speak to much for the Paris Metro as I only used it for a week to get round the city but was impressed with it all the same even though we did experience a few delays and crowded rush hour trains. my biggest moan about it was the long walks through pedestrian subways to connecting lines, but otherwise ok.

I drive a bus in London and there isnt day goes by when we have to carry ticket holders on behalf of the Underground because of some reason or other, one common reason of late is overcrowding where some stations are closed for safety sake, but the travelling public dont see it like that, to them they’ve just been inconvenienced so they look for some one to blame, I dont honestly think the London Underground is as bad as the media would have us believe, just imagine life without it.
Everyday is like putting a litre into a half litre pot, most large cities are like it, and the underground is a quick way of moving people from A to B, and when it carries the ammount of people that the LUL does it stands to reason theres going to be breakdowns.

btw, I dont pay for travel in London as I have a staff pass but I saw a fare list not to long ago and was amazed at the high fares LUL charge. The buses are not to bad though with a 70p flat fare
and an array of different daily, weekly and monthly passes to pick from.
