This’ Blofeldt’ [apparently numerous actors have played this villain] died dressed in women’s clothing , make up and such , not a glorious way to go ! but in the latest fashion ! obviously born before his time !

I thought it might be like dobbing in an old car , then it gets crushed , providing it works etc , etc , I might pop into PC world if only for a wind-up, to see what I can get for my HP Pavillion laptop circa 2000 thats had more owners than a DC3. watch this space !

As a young squaddie in 1968 , I remember a Current affairs lecture being given by an Education corps officer who had a ‘US officer’ as guest speaker about the US involvement in Vietnam after his speech he asked if any of us would fight in Vietnam , only one put his hand up , this cheered the yank up slightly , at least it wasn’t a complete wash-out , the culprit then said he’d only serve if he could pick which unit he could fight in , at which the yank said “sure son !, Army or Marines ” young British soldier replies grinning ” niether Sir ..the ‘Viet Cong’…

Now I know where the term ‘ Redneck’ comes from because that US officer had one , going out of that class room ….matching the face of the Education officers face , but I think that was from trying not to laugh too .

The consensus among us at that time was the north Vietnamese were doing al right on their own and didn’t need our help …besides we had our own civil war looming rapidly on our own horizon . Northern Ireland

If you get ‘beamed’ down as an unknown extra in the Star Trek crew your gonna get zapped … horribly

Remember ‘Tics ‘ licorice pellet’s in a little tin

so that’s why all the fuel filler caps are at just the right height !:) forward planning
