  1. It looks, to me, like he's doing an Ali G or Borat-type of interview..........a very careful set-up, to show that some people will agree to anything in order to appear trendy and inoffensive ! Some of those interviewees are clearly not even listening to the question........
  2. Is that about Operation Anthropoid - the assassination of Reinhardt Heidrich ? If it is, I thoroughly enjoyed the earlier made "Anthropoid"......... excellent film.
  3. Government contracts go out to tender. Lowest bidder gets the job. That's why most contracted-out public services are abysmal - you pay peanuts, you get monkeys !
  4. The jumper I got for Christmas kept collecting static electricity. So I took it back to the shop and exchanged it............ ............free of charge !
  5. In good, socialist tradition, she clearly has her hair done by the council !
  6. I know loads of jokes about white sugar - but there's only one about brown sugar. That's because them are rarer ! (I'll get my coat......)
  7. He's already told us the best bit !
  8. Your knowledge of these things is greater than mine mate, and I can't tell a real missile from a fake one, but it definitely had them !
  9. Plain black in broad daylight atm500 feet ? Not very well camo-ed ! Whatever they were doing, they weren't avoiding being seen. I have to say that to see an Apache so close, it makes you realise how many Taliban sphincters it must have loosened ! Incredible machine !
  10. And, before anyone says " reconnaissance"..........neither of these mighty machines is exactly incon-f***ing -spicuous !
  11. That's how this was - they were so low, you could almost feel the downdraught ! It's the plain black that's got me intrigued !
  12. So..... I'm out today, beating for a shoot that used to be local to me. We're having a lovely day, in the winter sunshine of a Buckinghamshire morning, when we hear a helicopter approaching. A Chinook passes over, at maybe 500 feet, so I look up to admire this wonder of engineering. Immediately, I notice that it has no roundels, markings or identification numbers - just plain black. To cut a long story short, a very enjoyable day comes t an end, and we're all in the farmyard, wishing each other well, when we hear another helicopter approaching. Someone jokingly says "It's the police
  13. Mines meant to be Beddy X Whippet.........(in reality he's Idiot X Twat) - wish I could afford one of those superior , finely- bred mongrels !
  14. You two do know that there are ways to watch live, over an internet connection...........provided you can bear to watch very late at night or very early in the morning (I forget which way it goes...........are you in yesterday or tomorrow ? )
  15. Very sad - 59 is no age......... Another player that should have worn an England shirt more than he did !
  16. Why did the government continue to issue contracts, even though the company started issuing profit warnings months ago ? The boss was paid £660,000 last year, not including a huge bonus, share options and a massive payment into his pension - while 20-odd thousand working men and women are likely going to lose their livelihoods !
  17. On the plus side, collapse might put pay to that wretched HS2 !!
  18. I guessed. Only an Englishman would know about crumpets and Hob Nobs !
  19. If it's to remind him of dear old Blighty, I'll chuck in half a pound of tripe, a post office queue and a rainy afternoon in Skeg !
  20. See - once again us kind hearted Brits do a charitable deed, and bloody foreigners take the pi55 ! Actually, add a packet of Hob Nobs and a couple of buttered crumpets to all that, and you should have a perfectly balanced diet...........
  21. Channel 4 showed an enlightening documentary a while back - "The Paedophile Hunter" - about Stinson Hunter, probably the best-known of the so-called vigilantes. He's careful not to entrap online paedos, but eventually the "young girl" agrees to meet and he confronts them personally...........the men's reactions make it clear that they know they've been rumbled - no innocent misunderstandings here ! Most importantly, he hands his evidence to the police ! Worth a watch (if someone smarter than me can find a link ?)............
  22. I've just about got rid of the cough that got left behind.........took 2 weeks to shake it off, though.
  23. I'm Ewan McGregor.......... Ted lacks what most of us take for granted. Ted has to travel many miles to find his favourite soft drink. Every day his search takes him further from home, but he only finds the precious liquids once or twice a year. All Ted wants is a bottle of pop, from the Alpine man........but he has to settle for Mountain Dew or Dr. Pepper - drinks that could make him sick............how would you feel, if this was your family ? But it doesn't have to be this way - just one extra can, will transform Ted's life. Next time you buy soft drinks, buy an extra can, for Te
