    Millenium Falcon - Haynes Manual

    Haynes manuals were brilliant back in the day. I had several when I owned a series of old Volkswagens (Van, Beetle and Fastback) But the icing on the cake was the Haynes for a Supermarine Spitfire which was a christmas present a few years ago...Damn I'm still saving up for that one :D

    Libya is finished, what country will be next?

    In a cynical moment when I was asked why we were in Afghanistan i responded with: "Well, all we want to do is corner the opium market" ;) TBH, in the last 100 or so years Afghanistan has been nothing more than a battleground fora series of proxy wars :(

    I've Got Someone Sacked .....

    Would you feel it acceptable if it was a friend who had drunk 4 cans of lager on a night out and then decided to go out for a drive? Chances are he would still be under the influence if not over the DD limit. Would you ever take that risk? I think it is unacceptable in both circumstances...

    Palestinian Statehood attempt at the UN

    Perhaps it is too complicated now, after 60 years of the establishment of the state of Israel and a succession of land-grabs in that interim. Remember that it was a bunch of suits sitting around a table which formed the Sykes Picot Agreement, and another bunch of suits who later dissolved the...
