  1. Twenty five years ago, they came round here when I was trapped up a ladder, painting the down-pipe. At one point, I asked them if they were the lot that believe that everybody's going to be resurrected at the end. Sensing a possible 'bite', they said "Yes". "Well", I said,"we don't want Hitler and Stalin moving in round here!" They had obviously never thought of that side of it and just went - and they've never been back here since, but they walk past now and then...
  2. I wonder how many on here are that way inclined..?

  8. No picture of that nice dog..?
  9. Corrected already - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-21824130 . Who do I send the invoice to?
  10. I've pointed out the errors to them - they're usually fairly quick to correct, but they might have gone home now.. I correct two/three things a week on there, most aren't too serious, but the odd one has been well worth correcting. Let's see what happens.. At least it's not PRSI..?
  11. Remarkable result - considering that he's only fighting in one distant corner of a very large ring..
  12. Eventually an uncontrolled woman will shout "Nerd!" at you... [video=youtube;M6Uq6H-Yhp0]

  17. I came across this - http://www.blurb.co.uk/b/2218346-signals-of-the-limerick-line-s-the-signalling-and - today. Some very interesting stuff in it... And other info on the site, too.
  18. I'm a great believer in graphite lubrication..
  19. Woolworths used to sell an identical model (in black) - much more powerful than the cordless varieties that are about, but the lead can get in the way a bit sometimes. Swings and roundabouts - but, at that price...
  20. No, this is one picking a Tupolev up ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37jL77YRog8
  21. Mil 26 lifts (most of) a Tupolev 134.

  24. More of a fan of the Mil 24..
