Gritstone Ram Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 I like special fried rice and beef chow mein. A bit pricey for a good one but I do like quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there are 5 people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother Colin. Or my younger brother HoChaChu. But I think it's Colin. I am sure in some way its politically incorrect now i dont know...but i always found it funny. I went to the doctor and said " doctor, I've broke my leg in 2 places, what do you recommend?" He said "don't go to those places * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah - it's a good example of a joke about another race that is perfectly acceptable, because the butt of the joke is the teller not the other race. Tim Vine wasn't it?

It's the people of Aleppo that should be concerned not Londoners. Your right on both counts, but .... The issue is something called force projection. They could have sailed around the top of Scotland without fuss. As I type the Russians are stressing the Spanish about refueling with them or not, and will now maybe drop in on Malta to refuel (according to BBC Radio 5). Like the Russian navy hasn't got its own tanker auxiliary ships that can refuel them on the hoof. They don't like the way we have complained about their bombing, and are just reminding us they have reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just ignore them, they are not doing anything wrong sailing in international waters whether it's intended as sabre rattling or just a fleet taking the shortest route. No reasonable person would trust Putin, in my opinion, but I think it's safe to let that one slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
