This :diablo:

being mistaken for my daughters grandfather yesterday….:mad::mad::mad::mad:

Shackleton, Canberra (for now) Whirlwind, Meteor, Sea Prince and an avon engine

KNEW id seen it beofre – pretty sure its from Metal Gear Solid 3 🙂

Looks tame compared to Metal Gear Rex Or Metal Gear Ray

im putting my money on an amphibious, icebreaking, ballistic missile launching tank

(i say icebreaking because i cant see any other reason for having a pair of archimedes screws on the front of “it” im sure the russians have used archimedes screws for amphibious icebreakers before )

I was in year 7 at school and I remember laughing at all the girls crying about some film they had just been watching…

I remember a real quiet on the bus home, didnt really understand why

I remember sat curled up on the sofa in the snug in my old house watching it unfold minute by minute thinking i was watching an adaptaion of a Tom Clancy novel

I remember bursting into tears and not really knowing why and I remember my mum hugging me and telling me that it would be ok.

Some years later, I remember hugging my mum and telling her the same thing as she and her brother went to London to get my grandfather (her dad) on 7/7 He was 20 feet down the road from one of the blasts.

I spent the whole day at work today expecting something to happen. I work in the police control room for Thames Valley, Everyone at work today was very quiet an unspoken tenseness in the room.

And now, 9 years on the vast majority of the western world lives in perpetual fear of similar happenings, the vast majority of the western world now lives in a paranoia of most arab/muslim cultures, we lose friends and loved ones in a senseless war.

All of the above, because of the actions of a few evil men acting under a veil of religious righteousness

im with orange and will be for the forseable future –

Since orange and T mobile have mergef (or something like that)

From next year orange and T mobile will share their reception – IE where T mobile has signal that orange doesnt, orange will be able to and vice versa 🙂

Orange do me the best contract deals too 🙂

Id heard that 163 was expected to fly again by the end of this year/early next year but dont quote me on it

Forgive me for saying, but in all fairness, have thunder city not operated buccs and lightnings (excusing the recent tragedy) with a flawless record?

Im sure its got to be better than the record for the raf over a similar period of time!

The loss of TCity is imho a great loss to the world – Where else could these aircraft be seen to fly?

Tornado Just a thought, what GCSE’s Are you sitting this year? Now would be a great time to start planning for a future in the aviation business. That way you could (possibly) gain some experience to backup the wild statements you seem to love making 🙂

Just a thought
