Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

The pope is a supporter of Argentina's CV claim to the Falklands. It would be a bit like getting the 'king of the fairies' to help.

pretty questionable, but assuredly there can be no question at all that the residents wish to stay part of uk, nor that argentina have declared a total disinterest (read as disdain) in what those people want, not that it is in the gift of argentina either way

Sounds delicious. I have always been partial to Fleurie, but it is somewhat variable in quality. Where do you get yours?

Analysis - No quick fix for Britain's overloaded infrastructure
LONDON | Mon Mar 18, 2013 4:25pm GMT
(Reuters) - After heavy rainfall, raw sewage gushes into the River Thames from a network of dank sewers beneath the streets of London.
A Victorian-era problem that has never been fixed, the cobweb-laced tunnels just metres from a new underground railway station at Blackfriars underscore Britain's infrastructure backlog.

For now, workers known as "flushers" struggle to keep the flow of waste clear from used wet-wipes and congealed cooking fat.
