    Are you trying to distract me from the thread title?

    If you don't mind sharing I would love to hear. Amazingly I have a dearth of problems right now!

    I am quite sure that MF is a twunt.

    They reckon they heard an explosion.

    Apparently just 40% of insurances cover terrorist attacks.

      Having met him a few times, he's OK, as indeed are most people. In fact, I think it's his turn to buy lunch.

        I read a review of a Mandela book a few years ago, Mandela wanted to prove how man he was to the armed struggle so he took an air rifle into the garden and shot a songbird, he was racked with guilt for weeks.

          Hitler poisoned his dog with a cyanide pill to see how effective it was before he and his Mrs took theirs....

            I would have tested it on the missus before giving it to the dog and myself.

              I hear that he was involved in some violent stuff.

              My accountant reckons it was a bomb!

                Hitler of course was the creation of UK and American imperialism

                  Mandela was undoubtedly a flawed person, his politics were often nonsensical but then when you are banned from practising politics for your formative years how are you going to learn to be an effective politician.

                    Thought only Eva took the cyanide & he shot himself
                    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

                      There is some show on the history channel at the moment about finding Hitler, the premise is that he never died in the bunker but escaped.

                      I think it is along the same lines as the Oak Island program where they dig a hole, find a rust nail and then insist that the Arc of the Covenant is buried 200 feet under it.
