London would put you closer in time, but further in distance than Lianachan, my nearest IrU neighbour.

The only good thing in London in March next year is the Elephant/SnakeBucket game. Your new overlords against the colonial oppressors is late February. :D

That will be nice, let me know if you end up near here.

I'm on a white bit my younger brother is on one of the few reamining brown bits. My older brother is in Doha and not caring, or stuck at Glasgow airport and caring very much.

Yes! and Yes!

We are tholing it, I haven't bothered trying to get he car out of the drive since sunday and it is presently under 14 inches of snow. Trains are mostly running ok, except when they aren't.

There are many fine quotes in that film. You're up BM65.

Second quote, same film:

"Well in that case, get that hearse rolling"

Mactep: No, when the Windsors start celebrating Eid there will be riots in the streets. It is bad enough that the US has a moslem president . . . :D

Arneb: I'll get you something that will look great in your new office.

Seems to be the overwhelming reaction in our office to this upcoming bunworry.

If the Ginger Prince organises the stag night the photos will be worth see-ing. :D

Watching the RBL Remembrance Ceremony from the Royal Albert Hall and greeting like a bairn.

Ripley in Alien?

Poppies much in evidence here, and two minutes silence is being observed more and more.

Lest we forget.
