  1. Hehehehe. Keep 'em coming !!!
  2. Whatever. The refusal of you two to condemn her and to deflect attention by attacking me speaks volumes about your personalities.
  3. More left-wing cowardice. Would have loved to see that on You Tube.
  4. Another tw*t from the Pie-Face School of Over-Estimating Scotlands Place in the World...
  5. Yep, you were close to the top of my "Which Gonk Droid would turn this news into an attack on a fellow fan?" list..........
  6. I know this was rumoured on here, but I never believe the rumours. Definitely rabbit-from-hat time. Relieved and excited !!!
  7. I will take both of your insistences on playing the poster and not the post as being a tacit acceptance of racism under certain circumstances.
  8. Anything to avoid facing an ugly truth, eh ?
  9. I am wondering now how long we've been tracking him, since the #19 shirt "just happens" to be free.... Makes you wonder who is already floating round in the back of NAs and NCs heads should we get promoted...
  10. Talking about waving the white flag...
  11. Bet she was a right go-er.
  12. Very good. Your pedantry allows you to avoid answering the substance for a little bit longer while you make up an excuse.
  13. No comment from the resident left-wing intelligensia ? Or just taking a while to come up with a decent excuse ?
  14. Well I rate him because his off-the-ball running is intelligent. Even the most sceptical would admit he at least represented a warm body to play in that position.
  15. Yes, I am sure the truth hurts a little...
  16. Lets see us play decent opposition before we think about letting Pardew have him, eh ? On a serious note, maybe his absence has simply challenged NA and the team to find alternatives rather than take the lazy option of "get it to Rickie". Or maybe its Connolly being back. We were really lucky he returned to fitness when he did, you know...
  17. I see today that "Peaceful" Iran, "Misunderstood" Iran, "Not hurting a fly" Iran, "Not building nukes" Iran, "Not threatening anyone" Iran has advised there will be consequences if any other Gulf state boosts its oil production to compensate for loss of supply due to sanctions against it....
  18. OHMSS is in my top 3. An excellent film, there is a bit of a bandwagon about Lazenbys acting, imo. Lets face it, Connery may have put some excellent performances in with other roles, but he was hardly stretched by the requirements for Bond. The ski-chase sent the benchmark in action scenes, imo, and those in Spy Who Loved Me, Fory Your Eyes Only, View to a Kill and World is not Enough are pale imitations. Then there is also the first time you see Bond express any emotional depth, rather than killing machine. Finally, the theme music is the total dog's b*llocks.
  19. All of the bonds are represented except Lazenby. Would prefer Royal Mail to swap the 10th spot for OHMSS so all the Bonds are represented.
  20. Based on the promotion posters for each film : http://www.007.com/vote/royalmail/ Surprised to see OHMSS, Spy Who Loved Me and Thunderball outside the top 10, since imho they were 3 of the strongest films.
  21. Still any doubts about concerning the sort of person the erstwhile Mizz Abbott is ? Yes ? Read further..... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2086722/Diane-Abbott-told-Tory-voting-graduate-Jade-Knight-work-white-Conservative.html
  22. No argument from me about that one; as have been proven, they would have saved us a fortune on the recent intervention in Libya.
  23. If the Pentagon are issuing reports saying there is a major design flaw and this variant may need to be scrapped, isnt it safe to assume that here is an institution who knows a wee bit more about it than your bystander speculation and observations provide ?
  24. Both of your points are totally irrelevant to the plane design flaw. If the plane cannot land on the carriers they are intended for (and the article makes it clear that the simulations undertaken have failed), then they are useless. Time to start shopping for cheaper alternatives. Maybe then we can have both carriers in service at the same time. The F-35 program is a joke. The "B" VSTOL version is cr*p. Instead of using a Harrier-like VTOL system, it uses dedicated turbofans which are then dead weight reducing performance during flight.
  25. You tell the Government and BAE Systems to make Queen Elizabeth longer then. They'll love you when another billion is slapped on the price.
