    Now if only they did away with all the computers and radios, actual driving skill might once more become the dominant aspect of F1 racing.

    it’s all controlled by a couple of teenagers on a xbox in South Korea

    You find plenty of twits anywhere, in public, on tv, on forums, on twitter, on facebook, just a case of sorting the wheat from the chaff

    Duxford did some very good day by day tweeting last year that followed the BoB but not really encountered any other good aviation related stuff, but then it’s easy to miss when following some heavy users.

    back up again, saw it a while ago and then it was taken down, just watching the last bit is hard enough but strangely being in a hot air balloon doesn’t worry me at all

    Without wanting to stir Ken Clarke is going to open up a whole new can of worms with this proposal and as the debate here has proven, what is reasonable force and what is premeditated and how to prove it?

    There has never been any issue in the past over the route taken, it is only since the current route has been taken that people have been paying their respects in such a noble manner and it has become a tradition, it’s been known for a quite a while that the route is going to change anyway so this is hardly news.

    On the flip side of the argument it would be nice for the MOD to take into account the wishes of the public in the area and I am sure that it is appreciated by those who serve and the families of those who sadly have to come back this way.

    Its a very substantial recovery – large chunks of the tail, several guns, tail leg, and some other good pieces.

    Quite interesting!

    How soon can we expect to see it flying at Legends then?

    You beat me to it, glad to see the Beeb taking a continued interest in these matters, though the cynic in me says ‘yet another spit’. It is better than nothing.

    Yes, indeed – but just briefly – I thought your club was the Tigers because of your location….

    It is, but topping the table sadly counts for nothing these days, in the ever commercialised world of sport they decided to have some pay off system so that fourth could still win some pot. And on the big day having had our ‘b’ team beaten by sarries at home they had the mentality to win on the day.

    Such is life.

    Inkworm, So what you are saying, is that if Rugby was an Olimpic sport, you would support the Olympic staduim/s?.

    No, due to the way it’s funded and tickets have been allocated (if rumours are true). I think certainly at club level (rugby) the pricing structure is fair, though I can’t comment on other sports.

    And Sky, this season was a bit of a disaster for us, we didn’t win anything and at times the performance was dire (drawing at home to Gloucester was particularly painful), I’m concerned how we’ll be affected by the world cup, I could go on but there are other forums for that sort of thing and it would drag this thread off topic 🙂
