    I’m starting work properly on Friday at Morrisons, i hate it alredy! Hours are horrible, pay is less than minimum wage (they get away with it by calling it a ‘trial period’ of three months, and then pay us just over minimum wage) and the discount is only on ‘selected home and leisure items’ so if i want food or something like that i have to pay full whack for it, even though i work there! Then again, it’s the only place hiring in town, and i’m desperate for a car… have some mates there too and the girls aren’t bad

    Heres what G-INFO has to say about her;

    http://www.caa.co.uk/application.aspx?categoryid=60&pagetype=65&applicationid=1&mode=detailnosummary&fullregmark=G-AMKL

    As she’s de-registered, i would guess she has been scrapped or in storage etc

    Was already on the Midlands Today version on Monday, very good it was too. Did anyone know if it said when it was expecting to fly? My little brother shouting his head off for the past 60 seconds ago mean i missed out on whatever was said then

    What was there before the universe? There must be something, but then again what was before that, and before that! That one keeps me awake at night

    Shame about MGB 60 being lost, i know someone on the same lifeboat crew as the owner of the yard, luckily they managed to save an MTB also at the yard just in time

    I’m excited by this new kit, bit too much for me to afford at the minute but hopefully they’ll produce plenty of them to go around. The ‘what if’ schemes are very cool as well!

    Haven’t been into the ‘proper’ Sheringham museum but the other museum they opened near the sea front is a treat – 3 ex-Sheringham RNLI lifeboats plus fishing and crab boats etc

    Hehe nice one. A friend of the family’s mother has the last name ‘Messerschmitt’, shes austrian/german and think she’s related to Willy Messerschmitt (Uncle or Great uncle or something), they used to call her ‘Stuka’ back during the war!

    Apparently the RNLI who has a brand new Lifeboat station at the end of the pier managed to evacuate the lifeboats, luckily the station itself was not damaged, although they’re going to have problems transporting the lifeboat crew to the station, at the moment they are ferrying them over using the RNLI hovercraft, stationed up the beach
