Painless

Beautiful FT !

Apologies for going on about my offspring,( like parents do) but I am so chuffed that my youngest, Marc is at last thinking more about something other than food intake and calories..... He has just completed his first week of "work experience" at Harwoods Jaguar/ Aston in Chichester. Working alongside the technicians servicing mostly Aston Martins and then going out on road tests, he has had a fantastic week. He gleefully informed me that he has been out in 12 different Astons, (each of which cost about the same as my bungalow) for a good "thrash". He is 14 and I am a 54 year old petrol head but somehow he has been out in 12 more Astons than I have .... GIT !!! This week he is in a suit with the sales and service chaps, let's see which he prefers. He is keen on doing one of the apprenticeships on offer when he leaves school, wouldn't that be mighty fine ! : ) P.

I have to agree with Pooka, lovely sheep ! Not only that but we see further video evidence proving that being in the Army can make your hair fall out ; ) P.

Cheers Spartans ! Thanks for the opportunity to fly against your guys and a low down dirty traitor. lol Thanks for helping to make it a fun match FT ! ; ) So what about arranging a pure dogfight match as per your suggestion Bishop ? Well flown Tolwyn, Fen, BB, Sid ................. And you I suppose Arjen : ) P.

I need to get 4.13 installed before the match as well : )

Thanks Sid.

Cheers Christoff, need at least two more pretty please........

Thanks "far too devious", looking forward to meeting up with you and your guys for a bit more fun : )

Wow ! I can't remember a single documentary that has blown me away more. The presentation of the data explaining past and predicted population growth was astounding. I don't mind admitting that the feature on the significance of obtaining a bicycle dam nearly brought me to tears, partly from joy and partly from guilt ! In conclusion; resources seem to be the main problem and a change of attitude in the west. It left me cautiously optimistic. Thanks Christoff, an excellent Televisual delight. PS. Swooperton should watch this, that geeza done the Sweeds praad din ee !

Thanks Chris, I will do that very thing this afternoon. Always interested in differing perspectives and new information perhaps in the vain hope that doing so will delay the onset of dementia and general crustyness . Mick.

Hobbies are very therapeutic so it follows that the more hobbies you have and the more passionate you are about them, the more there is wrong with you that requires therapy ? Conclusion, we Dogs are very sick puppies ! Lol Keep up the good work Arjen. P.

Thanks to your grandfather for doing what he did !

New map? Yes why not : )

Spock's original design still looks fantastic Skid ; ) Was that "grumpy" Phil ? ; )

Bishop sir, I was going on your suggestion of 6/14 or in English 14/6 lol Can anyone else make that date ? P.

You look right gorgeous sat in that pit Nick. Excellent photos m8. P.

Reading the comments after the video is an education for sure ! Incredible how folks can have such differing opinions on something that we take for the most part to be historical fact. If Stalin wasn't so bad why did Stalingrad and the river Stalin revert back to being Volgograd and the river Volga ? Same as Leningrad and St Petersburg ? It's ironic that the numbers show far fewer deaths from war both military and civilian since WW2 and a massive increase in Earths population which if it continues, will in itself probably bring about catastrophic loss of life one day ? P.

I'm up for that Bishop, anyone else ? 5pm your time will be 10 pm BST or 9pm GMT , DZT. Check my maths Sid ! ; ) Painless

St....st...stutter !

No swoop, 7 pm GMT = 8pm BST, remember dear? ; ) Ok Bishop, perhaps all of those ideas are possible. Let's book another base raid Sunday ? Painless.

"oh dear, she has gotten into the wrong seat, she has gotten into the pilot's seat" ................... (spoken in Harry Enfield's Mr Chumley-Warner voice : )

Just to clarify Bishop, can you guys make it to any of our weekday coop sessions ? For instance today at 7pm GMT. If that is too early in the day for you guys then it would have to be on a weekend like we just did. Any ideas chaps ? P.

Thanks Spartans! It was a great fun event, hope to do it all again soon. Painless.

Ok Skidders, so we should get online at normal time Sunday for practice and set up. Match to start at 22.00 GMT ( 23.00 BST ). How many are willing and able to stay up potentially very late, (our side of the pond) for this event? P.

Thanks Skid : )
