Re: Army, Navy, RAF severe cuts
One wonders if those lefties who seem compelled to touch themselves at the slightest mention of Dominic Cummings had the same problem with Alistair Campbell when, let's face it, he was a far more powerful non-elected member of the B-Lair government. At any rate even if these supposed ideas have come...

Re: Fans In The Home?
Fans are relatively cheap items. If having one makes someone feel that they are cooler - whether is true or not - whats the issue?

Shame the UK has no political opposition to do it then and we have to depend on satire from plane spotters!

Re: Nuisance Calls
I just chat gibberish to them as long as possible whilst I'm working - to ensure that as much possible of their time is wasted. Or in the event that they claim to be calling from my ISP and that my line is to be disconnected I tell them that its "great news as my ISP are a total bag of ****" at whic...

Re: RRR607 Voyager ZZ336 (new paint scheme)
The new appearance bears a striking resemblance to the retro livery that adorned the British Airways fleet from 1974 to 1980, known as the Negus design. Yes, in that it is red, white and blue, and is on the tail of the jet. Or perhaps to phrase it slightly differently, since both designs are based ...

Re: RRR607 Voyager ZZ336 (new paint scheme)
Given the potential PR value of this aircraft why are people on here so hostile towards this expenditure rather than say the money spent on the BBMF or the Red Arrows?

Re: Car park
And just for your information, I've never hit anybody and I don't read any newspaper - and I most certainly don't think my choice of paper gives me moral superiority over other people like some seem to.... But you believe that who someone votes for and the paper they read gives you moral superiorit...

Re: Car park
So based on your comment if an individual keeps coming close to you, you have to go home? Weak. I can only assume you read the Guardian and voted for Swinson. No I only read some of the rubbish that appears on FC. Physical encouragement which you are implying will happen is also an offence which ha...

Re: Car park
It's worth remembering that we aren't talking about personal space - we are talking about social distancing. A measure enforced by law to prevent transmission of a virus which for almost anyone *could* turn out to be fatal. If someone is about to violate your social distancing space and you ask them...

Re: Car park
What a stupid comment, ejecting someone by force would be an even greater breach of social distancing as you would be 0.00 metres away from individual. Just walk away if you are unhappy or better still stay at home then the problem will not arise. So based on your comment if an individual keeps com...

Re: Car park
Personally if I believe someone is going to enter "my social distancing area" they are asked not to do so.
If they persist in doing to they'd probably be ejected from it with force I'm afraid.

Re: What is the favourite MK of Spitfire
Personally I'd vote for the Mark IV with the 1296 cc inline-four cylinder engine.
