Me too and hopefully will see her fly on or close to her Anniversary next year somewhere.:)

I’ve mislaid my Haynes’ owner’s manual for men,it must have slipped out of my book of stamps.Anyway IIRC all it said was – Turn up naked / Bring alcohol.

Although that’s not always a good combination………….;)

My Woman is ten years younger than me,very sexually demanding,an excellent cook who does steak and chips 7 days a week,has her own micro brewery,likes me to go out with my friends and never gripes,picks me up from the pub if I`ve supped too much and wakes me up with a mug of tea and full English at about 11 a.m……………If Carlsberg made women…………………..I Wish !!!!!!!!!!!

You wouldn’t deserve her…….:p

Standing in a queue at my local deli with good humour all around despite the cold and the wait. Always friendly, unrushed, knowledgable proprietors delighted to share their that knowledge with their customers. And that experience shared amongst the waiting customers.

We are SO fortunate to have independent shops in this town – if only there were more!

Fantastic. The level of realism is remarkable. Do any of you specialists know just how much better the technology can get?

I find it fascinating how many internet experts are at odds with the show’s own producer.

Still, what does he know?

I think you will find that rather too many producers are out of touch with their audiences. The Beeb is famous for “fixing what ain’t broke” but do their viewers/listeners have any say? Do they h*l!

Hmm… I have to admit me saying that was based on a fairly hefty amount of touring experience working ridiculous and irregular hours, crossing time zones, stupid numbers of flights and general travelling, etc (a certain recent gigging trip through Russia/Turkey/Hungary springs to mind) and I’ve generally found a couple of days is enough to return to relative normality. You can still feel it, obviously, but I’ve always been able to function normally again after a couple of days. Admittedly it isn’t flying a plane but I can almost guarantee what I’ve done at times is far more fatiguing involving far less sleep, and I’ve still been fine after a couple of days. I guess things affect people in different ways.

Exactly. Although not recently but I spent many years working bizarre hours across time zones in a stress inducing job. I am not comparing it with flying but the point is that we all react quite differently to disturbed work and rest patterns as well as time zone crossing. The bodyclock symptom has become over-used as an excuse for taking a few hours or days “off”.
