<t>Although I hate these big cut and paste jobs you may find this interesting Twenty-three Canadians, five New Zealanders, four Africans and one Jamaican are remembered alongside 274 British deserters. So far the scheme has proved popular: only 68 of the 306 stakes still require sponsorsh...

<t>LC how can you be so cynical, I expect the repectable businessman took them back to his room to lecture them on the error of their ways, and they repaid him with this low trick. Come to think of it if by some unbelievable chain of evemnts I were to find myself in a room of transvestite...

<t>No PC I am in Lucas Heights for a day and then a week at the conference centre in Darling Harbour. Obviously given the chance I would go Walkabout and emulate the great exploreers of that country by dying a painful and lingereing death in the outback:D What are my chances of running i...

<t>Soooo after scaring me to death with the biteies and stingies you are all negelecting to mention the terrorists. Australia is a truley huge country, vast in fact, I am visiting one small part of it, the Nuclear Reactor at Lucas Heights. Now in this huge continenet guess where the terrorist's targ...

<t>I am afraid I would not care how good the diving is I would not be visiting any of these countries in the near future. Westerners in the so called "friendly" Gulf states are a much softer target than elsewhere. I have visited plenty of "hotspots" through work but it was always short tr...

<t>I watched it as well. I am fascinated with WW1 almost to the point of obsession and as such am wary of "Drama" documentaries but i thought they made a decent fist of it.

<t>Ah the founding fathers et al, I will no doubt be roundly tharshed by my American colleagues on FG but here is my take with more than a nod to Bill Bryson The one thing the Pilgrims certainly didn't do was step ashore on Plymouth Rock. Quite apart from the consideration that it may hav...

No they don't

Bothwell

GMC it's like asking turkeys to vote for christmas, they know damn well that half of them would lose their seats. However unfair forst past the post is I guess it's better than some of the coalition type govermnets which is what we would end up with.

The best introduction to Shakespeare I have seen are the "Animated tales" I tried to get them on video but they were made by Welsh TV and when I spoke to them they had no intention of releasing them and did I think they would sell?? Yes they would

Bothwell

<t>Would there be more outrage if we say brokered a peace deal with Al Qaeeda and the pardoned Bin Laden I think so. The way I see it Galbally is that the peace process in NI is long overdue and no one is more pleased than I to see it, however how can it be right to pardon killers, BTW I ...

Personally there is nothing I like more than raosting my nuts in front of a blazing log fire with carols playing in the background, obviously it's better done in the privacy of one's own home rather than the local pub

<t>He answered with a smile. How pale he was! His tall silhouette stood out on the green of the cornfield. He was the tallest man in his section. His head erect, and pride in his eye, I saw him running forward, with bayonet fixed. Soon he disappeared and that was the last time I saw my friend. . . ....

Bothwell

We would do well in these times when we get so upset about caualties numbered in tens per day to cast our minds back to WW1, in one battle (the Somme) there were 60,000 allied casualities in the first two hours of battle, yep that is 60,000.
